The assurance of life everlasting

Lyrics

1. The assurance of life everlasting God to me thro’ Apostles has given; Not in vain was my faithful endeavor, For the grace of God leads me to heaven.
2. Staunchest pillar in need and in sorrow, Brightest star in the darkness of night! Ah! no foe can destroy that life blessed, Which God gave through Apostles of light.
3. I will build upon Him, all else failing Though the dearest on earth pass away. Kindly, Jesus the Savior me beckons, To the glory of God yet today.
4. In Apostles of Christ firm believing, I will follow with faith and good cheer: Though my pilgrimage oft leads thro’ darkness, Yet in glory it once shall appear
Refrain: Sweet assurance, sweet assurance, Jesus send His Apostles today. Sweet assurance, sweet assurance, In Apostles the Lord leads the way.
