Blessed Assurance

Blessed assurance, Jesus is mine

Oh, what a foretaste of glory divine

Heir of salvation, purchase of God

I'm born of His spirit and 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 and whispers of love


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, all is at rest

I, in my Savior, am happy and blessed

You know I'm watching and waiting, I'm looking above

Filled with His goodness and I'm lost in His love


This is my, I know that 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

Jacobs Ladder

We are climbing Jacobs ladder

We are climbing Jacobs ladder

We are climbing Jacobs ladder

Soldiers of the cross


Every round goes higher higher

Every round goes higher higher

Every round goes higher higher

Soldiers of the cross


Sinners do you love your Jesus

Sinners do you love your Jesus

Sinners do you love your Jesus

Soldiers of the cross


If you love him why not serve him

If you love him why not serve him

If you love him why not serve him

Soldiers of the cross

Pass It On

It only takes a spark to get a fire going,

And soon all those around can warm up in its glowing;

That's how it is with God's Love,

Once you've experienced it,

Your spread the love to everyone

You want to pass it on.

 

What a wondrous time is spring,

When all the tress are budding

The birds begin to sing, the flowers start their blooming;

That's how it is with God's love,

Once you've experienced it.

You want to sing, it's fresh like spring,

You want to pass it on.

 

I wish for you my friend

This happiness that I've found;

You can depend on God

It matters not where you're bound,

I'll shout it from the mountain top - PRAISE GOD!

I want the world to know

The Lord of love has come to me

I want to pass it on.

 

I'll shout it from the mountain top - PRAISE GOD!

I want the world to know

The Lord of love has come to me

I want to pass it on.
