Oh Happy Day was first recorded in the late 60s and was one of the few gospel songs to crossover into mainstream popular music, reaching platinum status. Oh Happy Day was originally recorded by Edwin Hawkins and the Edwin Hawkins singers. It’s a song of joy and jubilation at the mere thought of your sins not just being pardoned but being washed away by the blood of Jesus the Christ. Oh Happy Day was written by Edwin Hawkins. John Redmon beautifully and soulfully interprets this gospel choir standard in his own way on his favorite instrument, the piano. The track appears on John Redmon’s Piano Series Album Gospel Classics, Vol. 1.

Lyrics: Oh happy day. Oh happy day. When Jesus washed, when Jesus washed, when Jesus washed. He washed my sins away…
