Something wonderful happened
To me last night
I knelt at the alter and I made it right
The King of Glory came in
And He took away my sin
Something wonderful happened last night

Just when I was ready
To throw in the towel
Jesus came and He showed me
How to live by His power
No more starting over
No more new leaves to turn
Calvary made provision
And why I'll never learn

Something wonderful happened
To me last night
I knelt at the alter and I made it right
The King of Glory came in
And He took away my sin
Something wonderful happened last night

In my heart there was a struggle
Between evil and the good
Satan tried to keep me
Just as long as he could
But the Holy Spirit led me
To an altar of prayer
The victory I'll savor
That I first found there
Something wonderful happened
To me last night
I knelt at the alter and I made it right
The King of Glory came in
And He took away my sin
Something wonderful happened last night

Something wonderful happened
I never will forget
Something wonderful happened last night
