HEAVEN CAME DOWN AND GLORY FILLED MY SOUL
1. 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!
Refrain
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!
2. Born of the
Spirit with life from above
Into God's fam'ly
divine;
Justified fully
thru Calvary's love,
O 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!
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.
