Blessed assurance, Jesus is mine!
Oh, 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.

Echoes of mercy, whispers of love.
Perfect submission, all is at rest,

Watching and waiting, looking above,
Filled with His goodness, lost in His love.
