Hymn of the Month: February

"Perfect submission...", wow, now there's a goal for ya. :)


Blessed Assurance, Jesus Is Mine

Blessèd 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.

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.

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

Refrain

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


Alrighty, so here's the deal on the video. We got a jazz sax rendition, the organ, the piano and the keyboard. While sampling them I kept getting slapped in the face with a video of  "Emily Rose's Exorcism" and the photo they were using to promote the video was...disturbing. SO! If you want to hear this beautiful hymn, how can I  suggest anyone but Third Day? (Crystal Lewis is good too) on itunes. Now, I'm going to go bleach my eyeballs and sing "Jesus Loves Me" for a few hours.
