19. The Angels in Heaven Have Changed My Name

Chorus:
I know I’ve been changed,
I know I’ve been changed,
I know I’ve been changed,
The angels in heav’n have changed my name.

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

2 ‘Way down about the Jordan stream,—
The angels in heav’n have changed my name,—
I heard a cry, “I have been redeemed;”
The angels in heav’n have changed my name. [Chorus]

3 It makes me happy when I sing,—
The angels in heav’n have changed my name,—
To know that I have been born again;
The angels in heav’n have changed my name. [Chorus]
