Converted to Jesus, O blessed the day

Representative Text

1 Converted to Jesus! Oh, blessèd the day,
When the darkness of doubt was all banished away,
And joy in a new life of faith has begun
In works of devotion to God and His Son.

Refrain:
Converted to Jesus,
Oh, blessèd the day,
When the darkness of doubt
Was all banished away.

2 Converted to Jesus! Oh, precious the thought,
Obeying the truth that our Savior has taught,
Of following Him who alone can us save
In land of immortals beyond the dark grave. [Refrain]

3 Converted to Jesus! Oh, wondrous love
That centers our hopes on the kingdom above,
And opens the way to the heavenly home,
Where ransomed from sin all believers shall come. {Refrain]

4 Converted to Jesus! Oh, marvelous the deed,
Redemption through Christ of poor mortals in need—
Salvation is free and is offered to all,
Who, trusting His promise, on Jesus shall call. [Refrain]
