Once a sinner far from Jesus,
I was perishing with cold,
But the blessd Savior heard me when I cried;
Then He threw His robe around me,
And He led me to His fold,
And Im living on the hallelujah side.
Oh, glory be to Jesus, let the hallelujahs roll;
Help me ring the Saviors praises far and wide,
For Ive opened up towrd Hea-ven
All the windows of my soul,
And Im living on the hallelujah side.
Tho the world may sweep around me
With her dazzle and her dreams,
Yet I envy not her vanities and pride,
For my soul looks up to heaven,
Where the golden sunlight gleams,
And Im living on the hallelujah side.
Not for all earths golden millions
Would I leave this precious place,
Tho the tempter to persuade me oft has tried,
For Im safe in Gods pavilion,
Happy in His love and grace,
And Im living on the hallelujah side.
Here the sun is always shining,
Here the sky is always bright;
Tis no place for gloomy Christians to abide,
For my soul is filled with music
And my heart with great delight,
And Im living on the hallelujah side.
And upon the streets of glory,
When we reach the other shore,
And have safely crossed the Jordans rolling tide,
You will find me shouting Glory
Just outside my mansion door
Where Im living on the hallelujah side.
