Ojo nla l’ ojo ti mo yan

1. Ojo nla l’ ojo ti mo yan

Olugbala l’ Olorun mi;

Oye ki okan mi ma yo,

K’o si ro ihin na ka ‘le.

Ojo nla l’ ojo na!

Ti Jesu we ese mi nu

O ko mi ki nma gbadura

Ki nma sora ki nsi ma yo

Ojo nla l’ ojo na!

Ti Jesu we ese mi nu.

2.        Ide mimo t’o s’ edidi

Eje mi f’ Eni ye ki nfe?

Jek’ orin didun kun ‘le Re

Nigba mo ban lo sin nibe.

On l’o pe mi, ti mo si je,

Mo f’ ayo jipe mimo na.

Lodo Re n’ ire re gbe wa.

5.        ‘Wo orun t’o gbo eje mi

Y’o ma tun gbo lojojumo,

Tit’ ojo t’ emi mi y’o pin,

Ti ngo mu majemu na se.

O HAPPY DAY THAT FIXED MY CHOICE

1. O happy day, that fixed my choice,

On Thee, My Saviour and my God!

Well May this glowing heart rejoice,

And tell its raptures all abroad.

Happy day, happy day,

When Jesus washed my sins away!

He taught me how to watch and pray,

All live rejoicing ev’ry day.

Happy day, happy day,

When Jesus washed my sins away!

                 

2. Tis done, the great transaction’s done!

I am my Lord’s and He is mine:

He drew me and I followed on,

Charmed to confess the voice divine.

3. Now rest, my long-divided heart,

Fixed on this blissful centre, rest:

Nor ever from thy Lord depart,

With Him of every good possessed.

4. High heaven, that heard the solemn vow,

That vow renewed shall daily hear,

Till in life’s latest hour I bow,

And bless in death a bond so dear.

P. Doddridge.
