O HAPPY DAY! WHEN FIRST WE FELT
O happy day! when first we felt
Our souls with deep contrition melt,
And saw our sins of crimson guilt
All cleansed by blood on Calvary spilt.
O happy day! when first Thy love
Began our grateful hearts to move;
And gazing on Thy wondrous Cross,
We saw all else as worthless dross.
O happy day! when we no more
Shall grieve Thee whom our souls adore,
When sorrows, conflicts, fears shall cease,
And all our trials end in peace.
O happy day! when we shall see
And fix our longing eyes on Thee,
On Thee, our Light, our Life, our Love,
Our All below, our Heaven above.
O happy day of cloudless light!
Eternal day without a night;
Lord, when shall we its dawning see,
And spend it all in praising Thee?
