Twas the dawn of a beautiful beautiful day
When Jesus came into my heart
He came in the darkness and blackness of night
And bade all my sins to depart

The old days are gone and a new day I see
He made all things new when He set my heart free
Twas the dawn of a beautiful beautiful day
When Jesus came into my heart

(The old days are gone...

Twas the dawn of a beautiful beautiful day
I'll walk in the old past no more
I'll whisper the story to hearts that are sad
And tell of the Christ I'll adore

The old days are gone...
