Heaven Came Down and Glory Filled My Soul

Author: John W. Peterson, 1921- Appears in 44 hymnals Topics: Cleansing and Forgiveness First Line: O what a wonderful, wonderful day Lyrics: 1 O what a wonderful, wonderful day - Day I will never forget; After I'd wandered in darkness away, Jesus my Savior I met. O what a tender, compassionate friend - He met the need 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 Savior made me whole; My sins were washed away - And my night was turned to day - Heaven came down and glory filled my soul! 2 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! [Chorus] 3 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. [chorus]T Used With Tune: [O what a wonderful, wonderful day]
