Hymn 511 – O what a wonderful wonderful day | C&S English Hymnary

1. O what a wonderful wonderful day Day I will never forget After l'd wandered in darkness away Jesus my Saviour l 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. Chorus: Heaven came down and glory filled my soul When at the cross the Saviour made me whole My sins were wash 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 Calvarys 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. Chorus: Heaven came down... 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. Chorus: Heaven came down and glory filled my soul When at the cross the Saviour made me whole My sins were wash away And my night was turned to day Heaven came down and glory filled my soul AMEN
