Oh Glory, How Happy I Am - Reverend Gary Davis

Oh, when I was out in the world of sin

I had no one to be my friend

Jesus came and he taken me in

Glory, hallelu

And he taken my feet out the miry clay

He placed them up on a rock to stay

I thank God that I can say

Glory, hallelu

O, Glory how happy I am

O, Glory how happy I am

My soul is washed in the blood of the lamb

Glory, hallelu

O, Glory how happy I am

Yeah, glory how happy I am

My soul is washed in the blood of the lamb

Glory, hallelu

I was out in darkness and I could not see

Jesus came and he rescued me

He claimed me and gave me a victory

Glory, hallelu

And one day while Jesus was passing by

He set my sinful soul on fire

He made me laugh and he made me cry

Glory, hallelu

Whoa!

Yeah, glory how happy I am

My soul is washed in the blood of the lamb

Glory, hallelu

Whoa, glory how happy I am

Oh, glory how happy I am

My soul is washed in the blood of the lamb

Glory, hallelu

When I could not understand

Jesus, he give me a lending hand

Led me away to the promised land

Glory, hallelu

Oh, well he give me a horn and he told me to blow

Go in peace and sin no more

He led me away to the upright shore

Glory, hallelu

Whoa, glory how happy I

Yes!

My soul is washed in the blood of the lamb

Glory, hallelu

Well, glory

Yeah!

My soul is washed in the blood of the lamb

Glory, hallelu

I know something that’s mighty swell

A sweet little story I love to tell

Jesus saved my soul from Hell

Glory, hallelu

Oh, stand back Satan, get out of my way

I don’t want to hear not a word you say

I’m on my way to the King’s highway

Glory, hallelu

Well thank God I got over at last

Thank God I got over at last

My feet is planted in the narrow path

Glory, hallelu

Whoa, glory how happy I am

Whoa, glory how happy I am

My soul is washed in the blood of the lamb

Glory, hallelu

When I had no home to claim

I begin to call on Jesus' name

He saved me from old Satan’s chains

Glory, hallelu

Now I’m fire-baptized and holy ghost-filled

I’m out here to do my master’s will

I must keep going, I must keep

Glory, hallelu

Well, glory

Whoa, glory how happy I am

My soul is washed in the blood of the lamb

Glory, hallelu

My soul is washed in the blood of the lamb

Glory, hallelu
