1  What a happy day

    When I no more could turn away,

    When Jesus took my heart from the black of night

    Into the kingdom of His light.

 2  Now my life's begun,

    The "really life" that's in the Son.

    No more am I enthralled by earth's empty dreams;

    Deep in me flows a living stream.

 3  As I turn to Him

    He fills me with His life within.

    His life becomes my life in reality;

    Oh, hallelujah, He's in me!

 4  I just love You, Lord,

    With other loves, You break the cord.

    You'll be my life for all eternity;

    You are the only One for me.
