O what a wonderful, wonderful day
Day I will never forget;
After I’d wandered in darkness away
Jesus my Saviour I met.
O what a tender, compassionate friend
He met all the needs of my heart;
Shadows dispelling, With joy I am telling
He made all the darkness depart.
Chorus:
Heaven came down and glory filled my soul,
When at the cross the Saviour made me whole;
My sins were washed away –
And my night was turned to day –
Heaven came down and glory filled my soul!
Born of the Spirit with life from above
Into God’s fam’ly divine
Justified fully thru Calvary’s love
O what a standing is mine!
And the transaction so quickly was made
When as a sinner I came
Took of the offer of grace He did proffer
He saved me, O praise His dear name!
Burdens Are Lifted At Calvary Hymn Lyrics
Now I’ve a hope that will surely endure
After the passing of time;
I have a future in heaven for sure
There in those mansions sublime.
And it’s because of that wonderful day
When at the cross I believed;
Riches eternal and blessings supernal
From His precious hand I received.
