Blessed Assurance

Blessed assurance!

God’s faithfulness is great!

Think of His Kingdom!

Hurry! Time’s late!

Redeemed is the proclamation!

His joy is mine!

Ready your white garments, and

Leave sin’s suitcase behind!

Calvary lifted burdens!

Holy hands bore cruel nails!

Victory in Jesus -

My eyes have no more scales!

Yon pilgrim, there a stranger

They have traveled so long

To reach the Home of the Faithful

To acquire white robe and gold crown!

Jesus Christ is leading

The Holy Spirit's pleading

God made He the Way, so

Stand up for Jesus - He slept in your cold grave!

And because of His great victory

You’re no longer a slave

So pick you up your sword now

And in glorious battle engage!

No retreat! No quarter!

No rabble on the Line!

No fainting! Hey! No falling!

We are covered! Don’t look behind!

With eyes ever fixed forward

Christ’s heart on open display

Christ’s blood is our armor-all

We will not cease nor give way

To that enemy of our own souls

To that foul fiend of the night

Whose stratagems are ignominious

Ignoble, and a right fright!

Sound you off the song number

Call the time and the tune

Mark you step, and step deftly

Board Fair Zion’s galloon!

We will not be becalm-ed

We will not be o’erblown

We will not be torpedoed

Jesus Christ is manning the ‘phones!

So stiffen your spine with your praying

Steady your heart with the Promises

No more time to be wasted -

You’re no more earth-bounded

For you have a date with Destiny

With the King of Love, oh, so Divine

The Table is set - Banquet Hall is bedecked

With such great displays it’ll take Eternity to inspect!

Remember you your manners!

Follow you your guide!

The King! At last! He is coming!

So let your joyous praise rise!

A joyful hallelujah!

A resoundingly great anthem!

Thank you, God, for this - the victory!

No sin again! Hallelujah!

Never see sin again! AMEN!
