My 39yo wife passed away 22 days ago and this is the hymn we sung at the opening of the memorial service, so it has a special place in my heart, to say the least.
My husband died 3 months ago, this was the opening song at his memorial service and we closed with Great is Thy Faithfulness. Beautiful hymns with great meaning for us 😢
Beautiful song and what a Promise for God!!!! None are worthy, but God and His Mercy provided us Salvation for All. We are Forever in Praise To Him!!!! This song makes me realize the life God pulled me from and raised me from the dead. Thank You God!!! AMEN!!!!
this song straight brings me to tears and I'm a non believers but I feel something pulling on me every time I hear this from even being a little boy going to church with my mom
Jesus loves you, and wants you to know and live Him. Praying for you to believe and know, to taste and see, that The LORD is good. Psalm 34:8, Isaiah 53, and John 14:6
@@JoshuaDWhitt Amen that exactly what this one is feeling :)) Let him in and your then saved and sealed until the day of redemption !! dot delay on it ! illusive_nezzy88
Good morning Praise the Lord Have today Sunday to be born again as God's seed and restore all peoples. Having Happy Sunday Let's hold on to the words of Jesus, the tree of life, and celebrate Amen 🙏
Tempo in worship is KEY! The pianist set the perfect tempo for this great hymn in this worship service. I love the hymn, "Blessed Assurance Jesus Is Mine"!
Is there a way to prepare the choir and audience for the tempo? They’re certainly gamely trying to catch up. Favorite hymn of mine and enjoy the pianist.
Thy Kingdom come on Earth ---- as it is Heaven!!!!! An Old favorite has new meaning to me now during this Covid 19 crisis. God is welcoming many of his saints home. God and bless and Keep them. And God bless and keep us here on earth.
I am grateful to say that I am a born again Christian and have been since I was 19.......I am grateful that we can gather together whether it’d be church congregation choir where two or more are gathered in his name there he will also be! However folks if you don’t know Christ as your savior then it burdens my soul to think that you are headed for a terrible place called Hell where the Bible says the fire is never quenched and the worm dies not! Folks you are not promised tomorrow! If you want to know how to be saved from this horrible reality then please by all means don’t hesitate to comment right back so I can lead you to the savior! 2 Corinthians 6:2 clearly states “now is the time of God’s favor, now is the day of salvation!” And Hebrews 3:15 clearly states, “Today if you hear his voice don’t harden your hearts! it is not me but the Holy Spirit that I pray reveals to you the truth of his precious gospel......John 3:16 says for God so loved the world that he gave his only begotten son that whoever believes on him will not perish but have everlasting life! V 17 says then V 18 says whoever believes on the son is not condemned but whoever does not believe on the son is condemned already because he has not believed on the son whom God has sent! Also Acts 16:30-31 what must I do to be saved? And they said, Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ, and thou shalt be saved, and thy house I am not threatening anyone but just warning them what will happen if they reject this precious gift of eternal life! Christ died a horrible criminals death! He was beaten brutally mocked spit upon and endured countless hours of torture pain for all of our sins! Ppl go to hell because they reject that pardon for their sins! And Jesus is saying to them in Matthew 25:41 depart from me you cursed into everlasting fire prepared for the devil and his angels! Hell was only prepared for Satan and his angels! It is not God who threatens anyone it is the craziness of rejecting the free pardon of salvation! It’s like if you’re in court you’ve committed a crime say you murdered someone! Now if you say to that Judge hey I know I’ve done a terrible thing of murdering that person but I hear you’re a good judge and so I know you’ll be fair to me...... the judge is going to reply well yes you’re right about one thing I am a good judge and because I’m a good judge I’m going to see to it that you’re punished and that justice is served! Well then all of a sudden someone you don’t even know comes forward and says you know what I know he’s committed the crime he’s committed and he deserves to go to jail but I really don’t want to see him go to prison so I’ll just go to prison for him so he can go free! So if you accepted that offer you’d be free to leave the courtroom but if you didn’t well you’d be crazy and go to prison yourself! Well that’s exactly how it was 2,000 years ago! He is God in human flesh and he came to this earth lived a perfect sinless life and even though he knew that we had sinned and because of our sins deserved to die miserably but he said no I don’t want to see them suffer so I will go and take their punishment for them! Even though he did absolutely nothing wrong still he chose to take the punishment for our sins so we can be set free from the power bondages and consequences of our disobedience to God! Romans 5:8 says For God commends his love toward us that while we were yet sinners Christ died for us! 1 John 2:2 says he was made to be the propitiation for our sins! And not just for our sins but the sins of the whole world! 2 Corinthians 5:21 He who knew no sin became Sin for us that we would be made his righteousness! The truth is if you had to get to Heaven by your own effort then you cannot do it! Because Romans 3:10 says there is not one that does good! No Not One! Romans 3:23 says For all have sinned and fallen short of the glory of God! Romans 6:23 says For the wages of sin is death! But the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our lord! But the good news is Romans 10:9 If we confess with our mouth and believes in our hearts that Christ died for our sins then was raised from the dead we will be saved! V 10 For it’s with the heart we believe and it’s with the mouth confession is made unto salvation! God gave us 10 commandments to follow and we’ve broken every one of them! And because God is a good God he cannot allow our disobedience to him to go unpunished! Well then like I just mentioned above his son Jesus stepped forward and said no I don’t want to see them punished so I will take their punishment for them! And also like I said he died a terrible substitute criminal’s death for us on a cross so now all we have to do is accept that payment for our sins and we can escape the terrible wrath of God that is to fall on them who do not accept this atonement that was sacrificed for our sins! Praise the lord Romans 10:13 says Whoever calls on the name of the lord shall be saved! And 1 Peter 1:4 you’re an inheritance incorruptible, and undefiled, and that fadeth not away, reserved in heaven for you! Christ clearly said in John 14:6 I am the way the truth and the life and no one comes to the father but through me! Acts 4:12 clearly states that there is no other name given unto Heaven or earth by which we must be saved as there is salvation in no other! Jesus clearly states that there is clearly only one way to Salvation and it’s him that’s it! There is no other way! God Bless everyone who reads!
Thank you for continuing to praise God by sharing this. Here in Northern New Jersey it is impossible to find a church that has a choir. All "worship" is led by teens and no one over 25-30 is n worship ministry. All songs are loud, repetitive(one verse often 10 times) as though a mantra. So sad. I arrive just as the sermon is beginning. Blessings on all at this church🙏💗
I love choirs too, used to sing in a Universalist Church in Chicago. Now that I attend the Christian Science church I study how to overcome matter like Jesus did.
Dear First-Plymouth Church-Team from Lincoln, Nebraska, many thanks for this wonderful posting. We are a christian choir in Germany and we want to sing this beautiful arrangement with our choir and piano in the church. Where can we buy these sheet music? I would be very happy about an answer. Thanks in advance and best regards, Burkhard Müller-Späth, Kassel, Germany
maybe they are all nervous or something looking at their hymnals. They sound so beautiful. They should have just sung out and let this precious hymn ripppppppp for all to hear. I am still moved though by their presentation. My all time favorite hymn.
Pianist needs to cut all the flourishes and play at the correct tempo; it's painful to hear. More like a funeral procession. A great hymn that needs better treatment than this!

Leslie , a director , yo!
Love the pianist and his energy; the choir and congregation seem opposed to it.
I remember singing this song with mu mom on Sundays. Still brings tears to my eyes.
glory to the name of Jesus Christ
So, THAT’s what those books are for! (Joking, of course. I just miss the traditional ways.)
That was beautiful praise the KING
Oh how I love this song. So wonderful we have these old songs to sing.
This is a good song, was one of the first I learned in the guitar and piano when I got saved in the mid-1980's.
The piano player is excellent.
I remember back when mom was alive singing this song n church
oui , j'ai l'assurance de voir mon SAUVEUR GLORIEUX, car il est tout pour moi.

We refer to those as “7-11” songs...seven words sang eleven times.

Loved it!

Cleanse the inside of the platter.
Beautifull Song, but the piano is way ahrad of the singers
Give that old time religion!! Not this new age, contemporary, gospel rap non sense!!

And 1 Peter 1:4 you’re an inheritance incorruptible, and undefiled, and that fadeth not away, reserved in heaven for you! Christ clearly said in John 14:6 I am the way the truth and the life and no one comes to the father but through me! Acts 4:12 clearly states that there is no other name given unto Heaven or earth by which we must be saved as there is salvation in no other! Jesus clearly states that there is clearly only one way to Salvation and it’s him that’s it! There is no other way! God Bless everyone who reads!
Blessed assurance, Jesus is mine
