Author: Fanny Crosby, (Frances Jane van Alstyne) (1820-1915) Hymnal: Ancient and Modern #601 (2013) Meter: 9.10.9.9 with refrain Hymnal Title: Ancient and Modern Lyrics: 1 Blessèd 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 Saviour 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: [Refrain]
3 Perfect submission, all is at rest,
I in my Saviour am happy and blest —
watching and waiting, looking above,
filled with his goodness, lost in his love: [Refrain] Topics: Angels; Assurance; Atonement; Joy; Music and Song; Praise; Proper 11 Year A; The Second Sunday of Easter Year B Scripture: Colossians 3:1-2 Languages: English Tune Title: BLESSED ASSURANCE
