Burl Ives - Since Jesus Came into my heart 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. 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. 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. 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. 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.
