Oh happy day (oh happy day)
When Jesus washed (when Jesus washed)

The song "Happy" by Carlos St. John is a gospel-inspired track that exudes an infectious positivity and joy. The chorus "Oh happy day, when Jesus washed my sins away" is a clear reference to the Christian concept of salvation, wherein the believer's sins are absolved through the sacrifice of Jesus Christ. The song then goes on to describe how this experience has changed the singer's life for the better.
The second verse talks about how Jesus has taught the singer to "watch, fight, and pray," suggesting that this newfound faith has given him tools to better navigate the challenges of life. The final line of the chorus "He taught me how" is repeated as though it is a call to action for the listeners, urging them to seek out Jesus and his teachings for themselves.
