1 I am so glad I've believed on the Saviour,
Trusting His blood for my pardon and peace;
I am so glad He accepts me and seals me,
Saving me wholly by grace.
Refrain:
Saving me wholly by grace,
Saving me wholly by grace,
I am so glad He accepts me and seals me,
Saving me wholly by grace.
2 I am so glad of the heavenly calling,
Calling away from the world and its charms;
I am so glad I have fled for a refuge,
Into the Saviour's strong arms. [Refrain]
3 I am so glad I am made a new creature,
Born of the Spirit and kept by His pow'r;
I am so glad that the Saviour within me,
Keeps me renewed ev'ry hour. [Refrain]
4 I am so glad that I heard the sweet whisper,
Warning and calling me into His grace;
I am so glad that by faith I am living,
In the sweet light of His face. [Refrain]
5 I am so glad I've a home in His kingdom,
Beautiful, heavenly mansion so bright;
I have forsaken earth's treasures and pleasures,
Seeking this city of light. [Refrain]
