1. I have a friend whose life is sweet to me,
I’m happy in Jesus today;
His blood doth keep me clean and make me free,
I’m happy in Jesus today.

Refrain
I’m happy in Jesus today,
I’m happy in Jesus today;
For Jesus goes with me all the way,
I’m happy in Jesus today.

2. He bore my burdens all upon the tree,
I’m happy in Jesus today;
His precious life He gave to pardon me,
I’m happy in Jesus today. [Refrain]

3. His grace to me grows sweeter every day,
I’m happy in Jesus today;
It helps to keep me from the evil way,
I’m happy in Jesus today. [Refrain]
