360. I Know the Lord Has Laid His Hands on Me

Refrain:
Oh, I know the Lord, I know the Lord,
I know the Lord's laid His hands on me.
Oh, I know the Lord, I know the Lord,
I know the Lord's laid His hands on me.

1 Did ever you see the like before?
I know the Lord's laid His hands on me,
King Jesus preaching to the poor.
I know the Lord's laid His hands on me. [Refrain]

2 Oh, wasn't that a happy day,
I know the Lord's laid His hands on me.
When Jesus washed my sins away?
I know the Lord's laid His hands on me. [Refrain]
