O what a wonderful, wonderful day,
Day I will never forget;
After I?d wandered in darkness away,
Jesus my Savior I met.
O what a tender, compassionate friend,
He met the need of my heart;
Shadows dispelling, with joy I am telling,
He made all the darkness depart!
Heaven came down and glory filled my soul,
When at the cross, the Savior made me whole;
My sins were washed away
And my night was turned to day
Heaven came down and glory filled my soul!
verse 2
Born of the Spirit with Life from above
Into God?s family divine,
Justifed fully through Calvary?s love,
Oh what a standing is mine!
And the transaction so quickly was made
When as a sinner I came,
Took of the offer of grace He did proffer
He saved me, O praise his dear name!
Heaven came down and glory filled my soul,
When at the cross, the Savior made me whole;
My sins were washed away
And my night was turned to day
Heaven came down and glory filled my soul!
verse 3
Now I?ve a hope that will surely endure
After the passing of time
I have a future in Heaven for sure,
There in those mansions sublime.
And it?s because of that wonderful day
When at the cross I believed;
Riches eternal and blessings supernal
From His precious hand I received!
Heaven came down and glory filled my soul,
When at the cross, the Savior made me whole;
My sins were washed away
And my night was turned to day
Heaven came down and glory filled my soul!
Heaven came down and glory filled my soul!
