1
O happy day, that fixed my choice On Thee, my Saviour and my God! Well may this glowing heart rejoice, And tell its raptures all abroad.
2
O happy bond, that seals my vows To Him Who merits all my love! Let cheerful anthems fill His house, While to that sacred shrine I move.
3
'Tis done: the great transaction's done! I am the Lord's and He is mine; He drew me, and I followed on; Charmed to confess the voice divine.
4
Now rest, my long divided heart, Fixed on this blissful centre, rest. Here have I found a nobler part; Here heavenly pleasures fill my breast.
5
High heaven, that heard the solemn vow, That vow renewed shall daily hear, Till in life's latest hour I bow And bless in death a bond so dear.
