This morning as our song of confession and assurance at mgpc we sang ‘Blessed Is The One’ authored by Doug Plank, a part of the Sovereign Grace Music team.

It’s a simple song, that expresses profound truth. I like the simplicity of its confession, assurance and testimony of forgiveness. Sometimes less is as much as you need.

Here’s the lyrics. Can’t find an online recording, except for this song sample at the Sovereign Grace webstore.
1.
Blessed is the one whose sins are overcome
Whom God has sheltered deep within His grace
Blessed is the one who trusts in God the Son
His steadfast love the sinner’s hiding place
Chorus.
Jesus, Your blood covers all my sin
Jesus, Your love draws my heart to sing
What a Savior, Jesus
2.
I will always hide at my Savior’s side
I find my refuge in His sovereign care
When the waters rise, God will hear my cries
His steadfast love will hold me safely there
Chorus.
