Reformed Press Hymnal ‎#12

12. Blessed Assurance

1 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.

Chorus:
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.

2 Perfect submission, perfect delight,
Visions of rapture burst on my sight!
Angels descending, bring from above
Echoes of mercy, whispers of love. [Chorus]

3 Perfect submission, all is at rest,
I in my Savior am happy and blest;
Watching and waiting, looking above,
Fill'd with His goodness, lost in His love. [Chorus]
