BLESSED ASSURANCE UMHymnal # 369

1. Blessed 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.
REF.: THIS IS MY STORY, THIS IS MY SONG,
PRAISING MY SAVIOR ALL THE DAY LONG; (2x)
2. Perfect submission, perfect delight,
Visions of rapture, now burst on my sight;
Angels descending, bring from above,
Echoes of mercy, whispers of love. REF.
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. REF.

2. HAPPY THE HOME WHEN GOD IS THERE

1. Happy the home when God is there, and love fills every breast;
When one their wish, and one their prayer, and one their heavenly rest.
2. Happy the home where Jesus’ name, is sweet to every ear;
Where children early speak his fame, and parents hold him dear.
3. Happy the home where prayer is heard, and praise is wont to rise;
Where parents love the sacred Word, and all its wisdom prize.
4. Lord, let us in our homes agree, this blessed peace to gain;
Unite our hearts in love to thee, and love to all will reign.

3. HOW GREAT THOU ART

1. O lord my God! When I in awesome wonder consider all the worlds
Thy hands have made, I see the stars, I hear the rolling thunder,
Thy power through out the universe displayed.
REFRAIN: Then sings my soul my Savior God to thee;
How great thou art, how great thou art!
Then sings my soul my Savior God to thee;
How great thou art, how great thou art!
2. When through the woods and forest glades I wander, And hear the birds
Sing sweetly in the trees; When I look down from the lofty mountain grandeur
And hear the brook and feel the gentle breeze;
3. And when I think that God, his Son not sparing, Sent him to die,
I scarce can take it in; that on the cross, My burden gladly bearing,
He bled and died to take away my sin;
