A BOY was riding along the road in a wagon, singing in a clear voice.
“Happy day! Happy day!
When Jesus washed my sins away.”
As I heard him sing, I thought, Is that from his heart, or only from the lips? Oh, I do trust it is with all his heart he can sing, “Oh, happy day, when Jesus washed my sins away.” Dear little reader, how is it with you? Have you ever been able to say, Jesus has washed my sins away? If not you have never known a truly happy day. But if so, you have not only one happy day but many. For when we know Jesus as our Saviour—the One who has borne our sins and cleansed us from all sin—we can rejoice in the Lord always. And more than that, when our happy days on earth are over, we shall have a happy eternity to spend with
“Him who loved us and washed us from our sins in his own blood.” Rev. 1: 5.
