Oh, I am so happy in Jesus,
From sin and from sorrow so free;
So happy that He is my Saviour,
So happy that Jesus loves me.
2 Oh, I am so happy in Jesus,
If earth in His love is so blest,
What joy in His glorified presence,
To sit at His feet as His guest.

ENGLISH
When times of temptation bring sadness and gloom
I will tell it to Jesus my Lord;
The last of earth's treasures borne out to the tomb,
I will tell it to Jesus, my Lord.
This earth hath no sorrow for to-day or to-morrow,
But Jesus hath known it and felt long ago,
And when it comes o'er me, and I'm tempted so sorely,
I will tell it to Jesus, my Lord.
I will tell it to Jesus,
To Jesus, my Lord,
||: I will tell, etc. :||
