| 1 All the world was lost in the night of sin, For the downward path we had traveled in; But when Jesus came all our hearts to win, ‘Twas a great, glad day! Refrain: ‘Twas a great day and a glad day To the world in patience waiting for His name; Yes, a great day, and a glad day Was the day that Jesus came. 2 We had wandered far from the truth and right, And were sinners all in the Father’s sight; But when Jesus came, bringing love and light, ‘Twas a great, glad day! [Refrain] 3 We had lost the guides of the ages past, And our sinful souls were despairing fast; But when Jesus came to redeem, at last, ‘Twas a great, glad day!
