1 It is wonderful! very wonderful!
Just to know that Jesus died for me;
It is wonderful! very wonderful!
Just to know that Jesus died for me!

2 Just to know that I belong to Him.

3 Just to know that God does answer prayer.

4 Just to know that I may work for Him.

5 Just to know that I shall see His face.

6 Just to know that He will soon return.

7 Just to know that I shall dwell with Him.

Author: Robert Harkness

After attending a revival meeting by Reuben Torrey and Charles M. Alexander, Harkness became Alexander’s pianist. He came to Christ shortly thereafter (on a bicycle, he said), and made several round the world tours with Torrey and Alexander. Harkness was especially well known for his program The Music of the Cross, and as the author of correspondence courses in hymn playing. He wrote over 2,000 hymns and Gospel songs in his lifetime.
