"You ask me why I'm happy, I'll just tell you why...."
I'm looking for the words and music to a song that a trio used to sing in our church. As I recall, it goes something like this:
You ask my why I'm happy, I'll just tell you why,
Because my sins are gone.
They're underneath the blood on the cross of Calvary,
As far removed as darkness is from dawn.
Well, in the sea of God's forgetfulness that's good enough for me,
Oh Praise God, my sins are gone!
Thanks for your help.
You ask my why I'm happy, I'll just tell you why,
Because my sins are gone.
They're underneath the blood on the cross of Calvary,
As far removed as darkness is from dawn.
Well, in the sea of God's forgetfulness that's good enough for me,
Oh Praise God, my sins are gone!
Thanks for your help.

Hi deegee1214,
I think this is it. Lyrics by N. Vandall:
1.
You ask me why I'm happy so I'll just tell you why,
Because my sins are gone;
And when I meet the scoffers who ask me where they are,
I say, "My sins are gone."
Chorus
They're underneath the blood on the cross of Calvary,
As far removed as darkness is from dawn;
In the sea of God's forgetfulness, that's good enough for me,
Praise God, my sins are gone!
2.
'Twas at the old-time altar where God came in my heart
And now my sins are gone;
The Lord took full possession, the devil did depart,
I'm glad my sins are gone!
3.
When Satan comes to tempt me and tries to make me doubt,
I say, "My sins are gone,
You got me into trouble but Jesus got me out."
I'm glad my sins are gone!
4.
I'm living now for Jesus, I'm happy night and day,
Because my sins are gone;
My soul is filled with music, with all my heart I say,
"I know my sins are gone!"
Hope it helps. God bless!
Steve

Might you know where I can find the music for this? Even if I could find a CD or cassette, I believe my friend could play it after listening to it. Thanks again!

This song can be found on a CD of the Old Fashioned Revival Hour Quartet that Sacred Music Services puts out. It is my favorite recording of this song.
