Since Jesus Came into My Heart

639 Since Jesus Came into My Heart

1 What a wonderful change in my life has been wrought
   Since Jesus came into my heart!
   I have light in my soul for which long I have sought,
   Since Jesus came into my heart!

Refrain:
   Since Jesus came into my heart,
   Since Jesus came into my heart,
   Floods of joy o'er my soul like the sea billows roll,
   Since Jesus came into my heart.

2 I have ceased from my wand'ring and going astray,
   Since Jesus came into my heart!
   And my sins which were many are all washed away,
   Since Jesus came into my heart! [Refrain]

3 I shall go there to dwell in that city, I know,
   Since Jesus came into my heart!
   And I'm happy, so happy, as onward I go,
   Since Jesus came into my heart! [Refrain]

Hymnary.org inserts a pair of verses:

3 I’m possessed of a hope that is steadfast and sure,
   Since Jesus came into my heart!
   And no dark clouds of doubt now my pathway obscure,
   Since Jesus came into my heart! [Refrain]

4 There's a light in the valley of death now for me,
   Since Jesus came into my heart!
   And the gates of the City beyond I can see,
   Since Jesus came into my heart! [Refrain]
