    A hymn written by Joseph Irons, Zion's Hymns (common meter):

    "Jesus, my God, I know thy name,
    With thee I trust my all;
    Thou wilt not put my soul to shame,
    Nor ever let me fall.

    I know thy power to hold that fast,
    Which faith commits to thee;
    Presenting all thy saints at last,
    Before th' eternal Three.

    I know, by witness from above,
    In whom I have believ'd;
    He loves me with eternal love,
    I cannot be deceiv'd.

    Safe in thy hand, O let me live,
    To make thy glory known;
    Grace from thy fulness daily give,
    And glory near thy throne.

    In that great day when thou shalt come,
    With majesty divine,
    To fetch thy blood-bought children home,
    I know I shall be thine."

    Assurance - one of the greatest gifts we have.

    I remember when Charles Stanely did a series on assurance, he remembers as a child growing
    up in a Pentecostal church - that did not teach eternal security - and how he was afraid of dying
    and NOT be sure if he would be going to heaven
