A Long Time I Wandered In Darkness And Sin,
And Wondered If Ever The Light Would Shine In;
I Heard Christian Friends Speak Of Raptures Divine,
And I Wished-How I Wished-That Their Savior Were Mine.
I Wished He Were Mine, Yes, I Wished He Were Mine;
I Wished-How I Wished-That Their Savior Were Mine.
I Heard The Glad Gospel Of “Good Will To Men”;
I Read “Whosoever” Again And Again;
I Said To My Soul, “Can That Promise Be Thine?”
And Then Began Hoping That Jesus Was Mine.
I Hoped He Was Mine, Yes, I Hoped He Was Mine,
And Then Began Hoping That Jesus Was Mine.
Oh, Mercy Surprising! He Saves Even Me!
“Thy Portion Forever,” He Says, “Will I Be”;
On His Word I Am Resting-Assurance Divine:
I Am “Hoping” No Longer, I Know He Is Mine.
I Know He Is Mine, Yes, I Know He Is Mine,
I Know He Is Mine title, I Know He Is Mine title, I Know He Is Mine title, I Know He Is Mine lyrics.
