BLESSED ASSURANCE, JESUS IS MINE

By Fanny J. Crosby 1820-1915
… Whereof He hath given assurance unto all men that He hath raised from the dead. – Acts 17:31

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. 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. 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, 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. 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.

That was one of the hymns we sang at my wedding. What a great witness for Christ it was to our unsaved families.
