His Worthy Praise ‎#100

100. It Is Always Happy Day

1 What a carol my soul is singing,
How the bells of my heart are ringing,
Since my burden rolled away,
Since my burden rolled away;
On to glory I now am going,
Faith in Jesus my Savior showing,
It is always “Happy Day!” with me,
It is always “Happy Day!”

Refrain:
Happy the day when Jesus came,
Cleansing my heart of sin and shame;
Now, come what will, ‘tis all the same,
For it’s always “Happy Day!”

2 Always holding my hand, he leads me
To wherever his service needs me,
Strong and loyal I will stay,
Strong and loyal I will stay,
For no longer in darkness straying,
Always willingly him obeying,
It is always “Happy Day!” with me,
it is always “Happy Day!” [Refrain]

3 He’s my shelter when storms are sweeping
And will help me to do the reaping,
Till the shadows flee away;
Till the shadows flee away;
So, no enemy ever fearing,
Words encouraging always hearing,
It is always “Happy Day!” with me,
it is always “Happy Day!” [Refrain]
