Telephone Line to Heaven

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.

This is my story, this is my song,

Praising my Saviour all the day long,

This is my story, this is my song,

Praising my Saviour all the day long.

 

2) Perfect submission, perfect delight,

Visions of rapture now burst on my sight,

Angels descending, bring from above

Echoes of mercy, whispers of love.

 

3) Perfect submission, all is at rest,

I in my Saviour, am happy and blest

Watching and waiting, looking above,

Filled with His goodness, lost in His love.

 

Come ye that love the Lord,

And let your joys be known;

Join in a song with sweet accord,

Join in a song with sweet accord

And thus surround the throne,

And thus surround the throne.

We're marching to Zion,

Beautiful, beautiful, Zion;

We're marching upward to Zion,

The beautiful city of God.

 

2) Let those refuse to sing

Who never knew our God;

But children of the heavenly King

But children of the heavenly King

Shall speak their joys abroad,

Shall speak their joys abroad.

 

3) The hill of Zion yields

A thousand sacred sweets;

Before we reach the heavenly fields,

Before we reach the heavenly fields,

Or walk the golden streets

Or walk the golden streets.

 

Precious name, oh, how sweet!

Hope of earth and joy of heaven;

Precious name, oh, how sweet!

Hope of earth and joy of heaven.

 

2) Take the name of Jesus ever,

As a shield from every snare;

If temptations round you gather,

Breathe that holy name in prayer.

 

3) Oh, the precious name of Jesus!

How it thrills our souls with joy,

When His loving arms receive us,

And His songs our tongues employ!

 

4) At the name of Jesus bowing;

Falling prostate at His feet;

King of kings in heaven we'll crown Him,

When our journey is complete.

 

Amazing grace, how sweet the sound,

That saved a wretch like me,

I once was lost, but now am found,

Was blind, but now I see.

 

2) 'Twas grace that taught my heart to fear,

And grace my fears relieved,

How precious did that grace appear

The hour I first believed.

 

3) Through many dangers, toils and snares,

I have already come;

'Tis grace hath brought me safe thus far

And grace will lead me home.

 

4) When we've been there

Ten thousand years,

Bright shining as the sun,

We've no less days to sing God's praise

Than when we first begun.

 

I can hear my Saviour calling,

I can hear my Saviour calling

I can hear my Saviour calling

Take thy cross and follow, follow me.
