The song “Blessed Assurance” is a heartfelt declaration of faith, peace, and security found in God’s love. It expresses the deep transformation that comes when a person turns from emptiness and self-reliance to being fully embraced by divine grace.

At its core, the song proclaims that God alone satisfies the human heart — all attempts to find fulfillment elsewhere are “vain and empty.” When the singer encounters God’s rescuing love, the soul is filled, resulting in a joy so complete that it overflows in song. The repeated refrain, “I won’t be shaken, I will not be moved,” reflects an unshakable trust that God’s strong, steadfast hand holds and protects them through all circumstances.

The title phrase, “Blessed assurance,” refers to the deep confidence believers have in their salvation and God’s constant presence. The song praises God as anchor, strength, portion, healing, and hope — everything the soul needs. Ultimately, it’s a modern hymn of rest and confidence: a testimony that no other love compares to God’s, and that His faithfulness gives stability and peace in a restless world.



All my attempts to be satisfied
Were vain and empty
Until the moment You rescued me
And Your love filled me
My soul sings
Now my soul sings
What blessed assurance
I've found in You
I've found in You
I won't be shaken, I will not be moved
How steadfast Your strong hand
Is keeping me
Is keeping me
I won't be shaken, I will not be moved
Oh, blessed assurance
No other love that I've ever known
Compares to You, God
No other love that I've ever found
Has done what You've done
My soul sings
Now my soul sings
What blessed assurance
I've found in You
I've found in You
I won't be shaken, I will not be moved
How steadfast Your strong hand
Is keeping me
Is keeping me
I won't be shaken, I will not be moved
Oh, blessed assurance
Ever my anchor
Ever my strength
Ever my portion
And all I need
Ever my healing
Ever my hope
Ever the truth that leads me home
That leads me home
What blessed assurance
I've found in You
I've found in You
I won't be shaken, I will not be moved
How steadfast Your strong hand
Is keeping me
Is keeping me
I won't be shaken, I will not be moved
What blessed assurance
I've found in You
I've found in You
I won't be shaken, I will not be moved
How steadfast Your strong hand
Is keeping me
Is keeping me
I won't be shaken, I will not be moved
Oh, blessed assurance
