Lyrics

I am hap­py now in Je­sus’ love,
And to you His good­ness I would prove;
Oh! His pre­cious life He gave for me,
On the cross of Mount Cal­va­ry!

Refrain

Ever sing­ing of His glo­ry,
Telling true re­demp­tion’s story,
As we jour­ney ’long life’s way;
Ever sing­ing of His glo­ry,
Telling true re­demp­tion’s sto­ry,
Humbly do­ing His will each day.

Put your trust in Christ, my friend, to­day,
And go sing­ing all along life’s way;
When we come to cross the dark, cold tide,
He will ten­der­ly cheer and guide.

Refrain

Sinful one, the Sav­ior call­eth you,
Come today, and with Him walk anew;
Oh! so long He’s wait­ed at your door,
But His pre­sence you still ig­nore.
