Lyrics

My soul is filled with joy and glad­ness
Since Je­sus came to me.
His love has ban­ished all my sad­ness,
From sin I am set free.

Refrain

He set me free, He set me free,
I was blind, but hal­le­lu­jah, now I see!
I shall ne’er for­get the day
When He washed my sins away,
And He set, He set me free.

The Com­fort­er di­vine is dwell­ing
Within my soul to­day;
His love to oth­ers I am tell­ing
Since Je­sus came to stay.

Refrain

The grace of Je­sus hath abound­ed
For all my sins I see,
Salvation walls have me sur­round­ed,
From sin I am set free.
