Blessed Assurance

     C	           F        C
Blessed assurance, Jesus is mine!
            D7    G     D7    G
Oh! what a foretaste of glory divine!
C                  F           C
Heir of salvation, purchase of God;
            F       G7	          C
Born of His Spirit, washed in His blood.


Chorus:

C                 F          C
This is my story, this is my song,
            F  Am  D7           G7
Praising my Saviour all the day long.
	   C	  F	    C
This is my story, this is my song,
            F       G7	        C
Praising my Saviour 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.


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.
