O SAY, BUT I'M GLAD
VERSE 1:
D
There is a song in my heart today,
A D A
Something I never had;
D
Jesus has taken my sins away,
A7 D
O! say, but I’m glad.
CHORUS:
D G D
O! say, but I’m glad, I’m glad,
A7 D
O! say, but I’m glad,
G D
Jesus has come and my cup’s overrun;
A7 D
O! say, but I’m glad.
VERSE 2:
Wonderful, marvelous love He brings,
Into a heart that’s sad;
Through darkest tunnels the soul just sings,
O! say, but I’m glad.
(REPEAT CHORUS)
VERSE 3:
We have a fellowship rich and sweet,
Tongues can never relate;
Abiding in Him: the soul’s Retreat,
O! but say, I’m glad.
(REPEAT CHORUS)
VERSE 4:
Won’t you come to Him with all your care,
Weary and worn and sad?
You, too, will sing as His love you share,
O! say, but I’m glad.
(REPEAT CHORUS)
