H.C 509 P.M (FE 653)
“Who once were far of have been 
brought near in the blood of Christ”
 - Eph. 2:13



1.  ONCE I was far way from the Lord 

     I frustrate Him with my manners 

     But now Jesus hath sav’d me 

     Halleluyah!

Chorus:  Oh, how sweet shall it be 

               Sweet oh sweet it shall be 

               Oh, how sweet shall it be 

               For Jesus to dwell within me.


2.  Now indignation and anger

     Satan now bound me with its chain 

     Jesus had now out the chain 

     Halleluyah!

Chorus:  Oh, how sweet shall it be...


3.  Lusts of the world now fill’d my hearts 

     And all sorts of arroganey 

     Now all burnt by Spirit’s fire 

     Halleluyah!

Chorus:  Oh, how sweet shall it be...


4.  Now I am free from depression 

     From all sorts of lukewarmness 

     Oh praise Jehovah with me 

     Halleluyah!

Chorus:  Oh, how sweet shall it be...


5.  I am singing just everyday

     In happiness I jump and dance 

     It’s by the Spiritual pow’r 

     Halleluyah!

Chorus:  Oh, how sweet shall it be...


6.  Thy precious blood now cleanseth me 

     The water of life in me flow

     My salvation now is full

     Halleluyah!

Chorus:  Oh, how sweet shall it be...


7.  All ye my brothers and my friends 

     Who dare this deliverance neglect? 

     To Him salvation is free Halleluyah!

Chorus:  Oh, how sweet shall it be 

               Sweet oh sweet it shall be 

               Oh, how sweet shall it be 

               For Jesus to dwell within me.  Amen
