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.
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 now 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,
Filled with His goodness, lost in His love. [Chorus] Used With Tune: BLESSED ASSURANCE

In evil long I took delight
Approach, my soul, the mercy seat
Author: John Newton Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 624 hymnals Topics: The Order of Salvation Faith and Justification Lyrics: 1 Approach, my soul, the mercy seat,
Where Jesus answers prayer;
There humbly fall before His feet,
For none can perish there.
2 Thy promise is my only plea,
With this I venture nigh;
Thou callest burdened souls to Thee,
And such, O Lord, am I.
3 Bowed down beneath a load of sin,
By Satan sorely prest,
By wars without, and fears within,
I come to Thee for rest.
4 Be Thou my Shield and Hiding-place,
That, sheltered near Thy side,
I may my fierce accuser face,
And tell him, Thou hast died.
5 O wondrous Love, to bleed and die,
To bear the Cross and shame,
That guilty sinners such as I
Might plead Thy gracious Name!

There is a Fountain filled with Blood
Author: William Cowper, 1731-1800 Appears in 2,596 hymnals Topics: The Christian Life Faith and Justification Lyrics: 1 There is a fountain fill'd with blood
Drawn from Immanuel's veins;
And sinners, plung'd beneath that flood,
Lose all their guilty stains,
Lose all their guilty stains.
2 The dying thief rejoiced to see
That fountain in his day;
And there may I, tho' vile as he,
Wash all my sins away,
Wash all my sins away.
3 Dear dying Lamb, Thy precious blood
Shall never lose its power,
Till all the ransomed Church of God
Be saved to sin no more,
Be saved to sin no more.
4 E'er since, by faith, I saw the stream
Thy flowing wounds supply,
Redeeming love has been my theme,
And shall be, till I die,
And shall be, till I die.
5 Then in a nobler, sweeter song,
I'll sing Thy power to save,
When this poor lisping, stamm'ring tongue
Lies silent in the grave,
Lies silent in the grave. Used With Tune: COWPER
There is a Fountain filled with Blood
There is a Sea of Mercy
Author: C. K. Solberg Appears in 5 hymnals Topics: Faith and Justification Lyrics: 1 There is a sea of mercy,
Wide as eternity;
It gives the vile and guilty
Salvation full and free;
It is the blood of Jesus,
Come, sinner, do not weep,
From sin and guilt it cleanses,
"Launch out into the deep!"
2 There is a sea of promise,
Its waters, deep and wide,
Most safely on its bosom
You reach the other side.
It is the word of Scripture
With power to save and keep,
So full of sweet assurance,
"Launch out into the deep!"
3 There is a sea of service
That you must daily brave;
In spite of raging tempest,
Sail out the lost to save!
O Christian, do not linger,
Shake off the sense of sleep,
Away, away to rescue,
"Launch out into the deep!"
4 Tho' doubts shall make you falter,
And foes shall make you fear,
Tho' disappointments gather
And sure defeat seems near.
Tho' storms are daily raging
With fierce and awful sweep,
If Jesus is your pilot,
"Launch out into the deep!" Used With Tune: WEBB
There is a Sea of Mercy
How Helpless Guilty Nature Lies
Author: Anne Steele Appears in 233 hymnals Topics: The Christian Life Faith and Justification Lyrics: 1 How helpless guilty nature lies,
Unconscious of its load!
The heart unchanged can never rise
To happiness and God.
2 Can aught beneath a power divine
The stubborn will subdue?
’Tis Thine, Almighty Savior, Thine
To form the heart anew.
3 ’Tis Thine the passions to recall,
And upwards bid them rise;
And make the scales of error fall
From reason’s darkened eyes.
4 To chase the shades of death away,
And bid the sinner live,
A beam of heaven, a vital ray
’Tis Thine alone to give.
5 O change these wretched hearts of ours,
And give them life divine!
Then shall our passions and our powers,
Almighty Lord, be Thine. Used With Tune: AZMON
How Helpless Guilty Nature Lies
Not Worthy, Lord, to Gather up the Crumbs
Author: E. H. Bickersteth Appears in 89 hymnals Topics: Faith and Justification Lyrics: 1 Not worthy, Lord, to gather up the crumbs
With trembling hand, that from Thy table fall,
A weary, heavy-laden sinner comes
To plead Thy promise and obey Thy call.
2 I am not worthy to be thought Thy child,
Nor sit the last and lowest at Thy board;
Too long a wanderer, and too oft beguiled,
I only ask one reconciling word.
3 One word from Thee, my Lord, one smile, one look,
And I could face the cold, rough world again;
And with that treasure in my heart could brook
The wrath of devils and the scorn of men.
4 And is not mercy Thy prerogative--
Free mercy boundless, fathomless, divine?
Me, Lord, the chief of sinners, me forgive,
And Thine the greater glory, only Thine.
5 I hear Thy voice; Thou bidst me come and rest:
I come, I kneel, I clasp Thy piercèd feet:
Thou bid'st me take my place, a welcome guest
Among Thy saints, and of Thy banquet eat.
6 My praise can only breathe itself in prayer.
My prayer can only lose itself in Thee;
Dwell Thou for ever in my heart, and there,
Lord, let me sup with Thee: sup Thou with me.
Used With Tune: EVENTIDE
