The Cyber Hymnal ‎#2270

2270. He Included Me

1. I am so happy in Christ today,
That I go singing along my way;
Yes, I’m so happy to know and say,
Jesus included me, too.

Refrain
Jesus included me, yes, He included me,
When the Lord said, Whosoever, He included me;
Jesus included me, yes, He included me,
When the Lord said, Whosoever, He included me.

2. Gladly I read, Whosoever may
Come to the fountain of life today;
But when I read it I always say,
Jesus included me, too. [Refrain]

3. Ever God’s Spirit is saying, Come!
Hear the Bride saying, No longer roam;
But I am sure while they’re calling home,
Jesus included me, too. [Refrain]

4. Freely come drink, words the soul to thrill!
O with what joy they my heart do fill!
For when He said, Whosoever will,
Jesus included me, too. [Refrain]
