It Made News in Heaven
Words and Music by Gordon Jensen
Luke 15:7
"I tell you that in the same way there will be more rejoicing
in heaven over one sinner who repents than over ninety-nine
righteous persons who do not need to repent."
Well it didn't make the papers
In this world when I prayed through.
It didn't seem to matter
To all but just a few;
But on the golden streets of glory
Celebration banners waved,
It made news in Heaven
When I got saved!
Chorus
Angels were rejoicing,
Hallelujahs rang,
When Jesus touched my life,
And I was changed.
Everyone in glory's realm
Knew my name was written down
It made news in Heaven
When I got saved!
Not long ago a beggar,
Now a child of the king.
This old world just shrugged its shoulders
It didn't mean a thing,
But it was God's approval
My spirit really craved.
Yes it made news in Heaven
When I got saved!
Chorus
Angels were rejoicing,
Hallelujahs rang,
When Jesus touched my life,
And I was changed.
Everyone in glory's realm
Knew my name was written down
It made news in Heaven
When I got saved!
