I Am So Happy

by John H. Kurzenknabe

I am so happy, Jesus doth love me,
When a poor sinner, weary and sad,
He came to pardon ev'ry transgression;
Jesus doth love me, I am so glad.

I am so happy, Jesus has promised
Ever to guard me with loving care,
He did not chide, when, contrite in spirit,
Asking for grace, he met me in prayer.

I am so happy, Jesus will ever
Help me to love him if I but try,
Help me to conquer every temptation,
Give me a crown of glory on high.

I am so happy, Jesus will meet me,
With the redeemed and jubilant throng;
Angelic choirs with heavenly music,
Shout the triumphant, glorified song.

Chorus

Singing and praying,
My soul is so happy and free;
Shout hallelujah,
For Jesus loves even me.
