Blessed the hour when Jesus first spoke
Peace to my soul, which, burdened with sin,
Long had been struggling sad and alone,
Blessed the hour when Jesus came in.
Blessed the hour when Jesus, my Saviour,
Entered my life, and made me his child!
Constantly near wherever I go,
Jesus, my guide, protector and friend,
Gives me a joy the world cannot know;
Glorious friendship, never to end.
Blessed the hour when Jesus, my Saviour,
Entered my life, and made me his child!
Soon I shall come to life's closing scenes,
Soon earthly journeyings all shall be past;
Jesus, my Saviour, true to the end,
Then shall receive and give me sweet rest.
Blessed the hour when Jesus, my Saviour,
Entered my life, and made me his child!
