O What a Wonderful, Wonderful Day

Author: John W. Peterson Hymnal: Hymns for the Living Church #410 (1974) Refrain First Line: Heaven came down and glory filled my soul Lyrics: 1 O what a wonderful, wonderful day-- Day I will never forget; After I'd wandered in darkness away, Jesus my Savior I met. O what a tender, compassionate friend-- He met the need of my heart; Shadows dispelling, With joy I am telling, He made all the darkness depart! Refrain: Heaven came down and glory filled my soul, When at the cross the Savior made me whole; My sins were washed away And my night was turned to day-- Heaven came down and glory filled my soul! 2 Born of the Spirit with life from above Into God's family divine, Justified fully thro' Calvary's love, O what a standing is mine! And the transaction so quickly was made When as a sinner I came, Took of the offer Of grace He did proffer-- He saved me, O praise His dear name! (Refrain) 3 Now I've a hope that will surely endure After the passing of time; I have a future in heaven for sure, There in those mansions sublime. And it's because of that wonderful day When at the cross I believed; Riches eternal And blessings supernal From His precious hand I received.
