Blessed Assurance

Fanny J. Crosby (1873)

Lyrics

Blessed assurance, Jesus is mine! O what a foretaste 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 Savior, all the day long; this is my story, this is my song, praising my Savior all the day long.

Perfect submission, perfect delight, visions of rapture now burst on my sight; angels descending, bring from above echoes of mercy, whispers of love. [Refrain]

Perfect submission, all is at rest, I in my Savior am happy and blest, watching and waiting, looking above,filled with His goodness, lost in His love. [Refrain]
