1 Preserved by thine almighty power,
O Lord, our Maker, Saviour, King,
And brought to see this happy hour,
We come thy praises here to sing.

Chorus:
Happy day, happy day!
Here in thy courts we'll gladly stay,
And at thy footstool humbly pray
That thou wouldst take our sins away.
Happy day, happy day!
When Christ shall wash our sins away!

2 We praise thee for thy constant care,
For life preserved, for mercies given;
Oh, may we still these mercies share,
And taste the joys of sins forgiven. [Chorus]

3 We praise thee for the joyful news
Of pardon through a Saviour's blood;
O Lord, incline our hearts to choose
The way to happiness and God. [Chorus]

4 And when on earth our days are done,
Grant, Lord, that we at length may join,
Teachers and scholars, round thy throne,
The song of Moses and the Lamb. [Chorus]
