VERSE 1

D                  G        D 
Blessed assurance, Jesus is mine!

Oh, what a foretaste of glory divine!

D                  G           D 
Heir of salvation, purchase of God,

            Em      D      A7     D 
born of his Spirit, washed in his blood.

REFRAIN 

This is my story, this is my song,

            G  D   A       E   A 
praising my Savior all the day long;

A7         D      G          D 
this is my story, this is my song,

praising my Savior all the day long!

visions of rapture now burst on my sight.

D                 G           D 
Angels descending bring from above,

          Em     D   A7      D 
echoes of mercy, whispers of love.

REFRAIN 

This is my story, this is my song,

            G  D   A       E   A 
praising my Savior all the day long;

A7         D      G          D

Perfect submission, all is at rest,

I in my Savior am happy and blest,

D                     G        D 
watching and waiting, looking above,

                Em        D    A7     D 
filled with his goodness, lost in his love.

REFRAIN 

This is my story, this is my song,

praising my Savior all the day long;

A7         D      G          D 
this is my story, this is my song,

            Em     D   A7      D 
praising my Savior all the day long!
