Author: Fanny Crosby Hymnal: Lift Up Your Hearts #363 (2013) Scripture: Job 1-42 First Line: Blessed assurance: Jesus is mine! Refrain First Line: This is my story, this is my song Lyrics: 1 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.
Refrain:
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. [Refrain]
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. [Refrain]
* used here in the sense of glory, ecstatic joy
