Blessed Assurance hwb 332
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.
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.
Perfect submission, all is at rest.
I in my Savior am happy and bless’d,
Watching and waiting looking above,
Filled with His goodness, lost in His love.
YOUR LOVE DEFENDS ME Matt Maher
You are my joy, You are my song
You are the well, the One I'm drawing from
You are my refuge, my whole life long
Where else would I go?
Chorus
Surely my God is the strength of my soul
Your love defends me, Your love defends me
And when I feel like I'm all alone
Your love defends me, Your love defends me
Day after day, night after night
I will remember, You're with me in this fight
Although the battle, it rages on
The war already won
I know the war is already won
We sing Hallelujah
You're my portion
My salvation
O PRAISE THE NAME
I cast my mind to Calvary
Where Jesus bled and died for me.
I see His wounds, His hands His feet.
My Savior on that cursed tree
His body bound and drenched in tears
They laid Him down in Joseph's tomb.
The entrance sealed by heavy stone
Messiah still and all alone
Chorus
O praise the name of the Lord our God
O praise His name forever more
For endless days we will sing Your praise
Oh Lord, oh Lord our God
Then on the third at break of dawn,
the Son of heaven rose again.
O trampled death where is your sting?
The angels roar for Christ the King
He shall return in robes of white
The blazing Son shall pierce the night.
And I will rise among the saints,
My gaze transfixed on Jesus' face
CREATE IN ME A CLEAN HEART
Create in me a clean heart, O God,
And renew a right spirit within me; (repeat)
Cast me not away from Thy presence. Oh Lord
Take not Thy Holy Spirit from me.
Restore unto me the joy of Thy salvation
And renew a right spirit within me.
