146. Happy Am I

1 Sweetly I trust in my Redeemer as I go singing on my way,
So happy am I, yes happy am I;
Ever I know that He is with me keeping my soul from day to day,
So happy am I, yes, happy am I.

Refrain:
Happy am I with my Redeemer, singing along the homeward way,
And telling the lost of His great love;
Happy am I to know He's with me, keeping me spotless day by day,
I'm happy along the way to Heav'n above. b

2 Sweetly I sing along the journey, helping the lost to know His love,
So happy am I, yes happy am I;
Hoping to meet Him in the morning in that sweet happy home above.
So happy am I, yes happy am I. [Refrain]

3 Looking for Him most any moment, ready when Jesus shall appear,
So happy am I, yes happy am I;
Keeping my lamp all trimmed and burning, feeling His coming now is near,
So happy am I, yes happy am I. [Refrain]
