The day I got saved, God wrote my name on Heaven's roll
A new name written down in glory,
And it's mine, Oh yes, it's mine.
And the white robed angels sing the story
A sinner has come home.
There's a new name written down in glory,
And it's mind, oh yes, it's mine.
With my sins forgiven,
I am bound for Heaven.
Never more to roam.
