Heaven Came Down And Glory Filled My Soul
I woke up early this morning with this song on my heart and thought I would share…
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, Â (filled my soul)
When at the cross the Savior made me whole; Â (made me whole)
My sins were washed away and my night was turned to day,
Heaven came down and glory filled my soul! Â (filled my soul)
Born of the Spirit with life from above into God’s family 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!
Heaven came down and glory filled my soul, Â (filled my soul)
When at the cross the Savior made me whole; Â (made me whole)
My sins were washed away and my night was turned to day,
Heaven came down and glory filled my soul! Â (filled my soul)
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.
Heaven came down and glory filled my soul, Â (filled my soul)
When at the cross the Savior made me whole; Â (made me whole)
My sins were washed away and my night was turned to day,
Heaven came down and glory filled my soul! Â (filled my soul)
