Such Blessed Assurance!

 

 

Such blessed, sweet assurance
In Jesus Christ our Lord;
We have peace and endurance
And His Word as our sword.
Though there may be times of doubt,
Or even depression,
Our God always brings us out
To a joyous session…
Such Blessed Assurance!

He who redeemed us from sin
Guards our hearts from despair;
And we can be certain within
Our loving Shepherd’s there.
In the most difficult days,
When waters are so deep,
Our hearts can still sing His praise,
Knowing He’s with His sheep...
Such Blessed Assurance!

In every valley we face,
We see His rod and staff;
And, thanks to amazing grace,
We’ll never taste His wrath.
This one thing we’ve ascertained:
We’re His to have and hold,
And, with Him, we’re sure to reign
On those streets of pure gold…
Such Blessed Assurance!

 “Our gospel came not unto you in word only, but also
in power, and in the Holy Ghost, and in much assurance”
(1 Thes 1:5)
