I am seeking the lyrics to the hymn with the chorus:
"Gone at last, my sinful past,God took it away."
Other lines have the words "my wonderful day, it made me free, ..." and "I'm pardoned at last" and "with Jesus I'll stay."
Thanks much.

Hi KenB
Is this possibly the hymn you are looking for?
Love Took It Away
Once I bore a burden great, Was weary and sad;
But no more I bear its weight, I'm pardoned and glad;
Love divine at last I know, No longer I stray;
On without a stain I go- Love took it away.
Chorus
Love took it away, One wonderful day,
Made me free and lifted me, In the light to stay;
Love took it away, One wonderful day,
Gone at last my sinful past- Love took it away.
Once a craving great had I For pleasures that stain;
Now I pass those pleasures by, They tempt me in vain;
I am under His control, Rejoicing each day;
Gone the burden from my soul- Love took it away.
Chorus
Once my record was unclean, My spirit was worn;
Now my name on high is seen As fair as the morn;
O what happiness is mine, With Jesus I stay;
Sin no more makes me repine- Love took it away.

"Gone at last, gone for good. Jesus has taken what nobody else could.
My guilty sin, my sinful past is gone, gone at last."
Looking for the rest of the lyrics to this one, please!
