My Heart is Singing for Joy


I'm a southern gal.. i love all things from the South and I love old Baptist Hymns!! One of my favorites is "Blessed Assurance" So my heart was filled with Joy when I learned that in Music class Hoot was learning Blessed Assurance by Frances J. Crosby. It's a beautiful little melody, but the lyrics are sweet sweet music to my soul.

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.
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.
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.


If you haven't listened to it in a while go to Playlist and take a listen!!!
