P. 8

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.

             Perfect submission, perfect delight,
             visions of rapture now burst on my sight;
             Angels, descending, bring from above
             echoes of mercy, whispers of love.
             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.

             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
                        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.
                                                               Frances J. Crosby, 1873

             And can it be that I should gain
             an int'rest in the Savior's blood?
             Died He for me, who caused His pain?
             For me, who Him to death pursued?
             Amazing love! how can it be
             that Thou, my God, should die for me?
         Chorus
                        Amazing love! how can it be
                        that Thou, my God, should die for me!
