English Christian Song Lyrics

  • Blessed assurance

    1 Blessed assurance, Jesus is mine
    O, what a foretaste of glory divine
    Heir of salvation, purchase of God
    Born of His Spirit, washed in His blood…

    (Chorus)
    This is my story, this is my song
    Praising my Savior all the day long (2)

    2 Perfect submission, perfect delight,
    Visions of rapture, now burst on my sight
    Angels descending, bring from above
    Echoes of mercy, whispers of love…

    (Chorus)

    3 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.

    (Chorus)

    (Written by Fanny Jane Crosby)

  • Old rugged cross

    1 On a hill far away,
    Stood an old rugged Cross
    The emblem of suffering and shame
    And I love that old Cross
    Where the dearest and best
    For a world of lost sinners was slain

    (Chorus)
    So I’ll cherish, the old rugged Cross
    Till my trophies, at last I lay down
    I will cling to the old rugged Cross
    And exchange it some day, for a crown…

    2 Oh, that old rugged Cross so despised by the world
    Has a wondrous attraction for me
    For the dear Lamb of God, left His Glory above
    To bear it to dark Calvary

    (Chorus)
    So I’ll cherish the old rugged cross…

    3 In the old rugged Cross,
    Stain’d with blood so divine
    A wondrous beauty I see
    For ’twas on that old cross
    Jesus suffered and died,
    To pardon and sanctify me

    (Chorus)
    So I’ll cherish the old rugged cross…

    4 To the old rugged Cross,
    I will ever be true
    Its shame and reproach gladly bear
    Then He’ll call me some day
    To my home far away,
    Where His glory forever I’ll share

    (Chorus)
    So I’ll cherish the old rugged cross…

    I will cling to the old rugged Cross
    And exchange it some day, for a crown…

  • Give thanks with a grateful heart

    Give thanks with a grateful heart
    Give thanks to the Holy One
    Give thanks because He’s given Jesus Christ,
    His Son

    And now…
    let the weak say, “I am strong”
    Let the poor say, “I am rich
    Because of what the Lord has done
    for us” (2)

    Give thanks…

    (Written by Henry Smith)
