Blessed Assurance
Music and lyrics by Fanny Jane Crosby & Phoebe Palmer Knapp
VERSE 1:
Blessèd assurance, Jesus is mine!
O what a fore-taste of glory divine!
Heir of salvation, purchase of God,
Born of His Spirit, washed in His blood.
REFRAIN:
This is my story, this is my song,
Praising my Saviour, all the day long;
This is my story, this is my song,
Praising my Saviour, all the day long.
VERSE 2:
Perfect submission, perfect delight,
Visions of rap-ture now burst on my sight;
Angels descending bring from above
Echoes of mercy, whispers of love.
REFRAIN:
VERSE 3:
Perfect submission, all is at rest
I in my Sav-iour am happy and blest,
Watching and waiting, looking a-bove,
Filled with His goodness,lost in His love.
REFRAIN:
