Gloria in Excelsis #d470
1 Oh, glad “whosoever,” the deed is done,
My sins are pardoned thro’ Christ the Son.
Of love so precious I never had dreamed,
Oh, sweet is the peace of the soul redeemed.
Refrain:
Oh, glory to Jesus, redeemed! redeemed!
Of love so precious I never had dreamed,
Oh, rapturous story, redeemed! redeemed!
Oh, glory! oh, glory, redeemed! redeemed!
2 I came to my Saviour, his word believed,
When he the sinner at once received,
And now his praises I joyfully sing,
And dwell in the love of my Lord and King. [Refrain]
3 Oh, glad “whosoever,” the crimson tide
Is free and open, is deep and wide;
Oh, come, my brother, and bathe in the stream,
And you shall be filled with a joy supreme. [Refrain]
