African Methodist Episcopal Church Hymnal ‎#357

357. I Know I've Been Changed (The Angels in Heaven Have Changed My Name)

Refrain:
I know I’ve been changed,
I know I’ve been changed,
I know I’ve been changed,
The angels in heaven have changed my name.

1 I told the Lord if He’d take my heart,
The angels in heaven have changed my name,
I wouldn’t desert when the battle got hot;
The angels in heaven have changed my name. [Refrain]

2 ‘Way down about the Jordan stream,
The angels in heaven have change my name,
I heard a cry, “I have been redeemed;”
The angels in heaven have changed my name. [Refrain]

3 It makes me happy when I sing,
The angels in heaven have changed my name,
To know that I have been born again;
The angels in heaven have changed my name. [Refrain]
