ON THIS SHEET: 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. — 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, whispers of love. — 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. — Fanny Crosby, 1873. LETTER SIZE: 1/4-inch. HANDWRITING: joined cursive. SHEETS: Copywork (Step 1), First Letter Hints (Step 2), Memory Lines (Step 3), Source Text, First Letters Only, Randomized Redacting.
