Billy Dean's Lovely Cover of ‘Blessed Assurance’ Hymn

Singer and songwriter Billy Dean appeared on Larry’s Country Diner and turned in a delightful cover of a classic, one of the most beloved hymns.

Life is an experience full of uncertainty. Things can happen in the blink of an eye that will dramatically change our lives forever. No one can adequately and wholly predict what will happen from one second to the next. Anyone who says otherwise is either insane or a liar. 

However, no matter what we encounter or come up against, there is the possibility to live life without fear or worry. Jesus Christ offers a peace that surpasses all understanding. Believing in and following Him will provide a blessed assurance that regardless of what happens, we’ll be OK because of Christ.

In a clip posted on YouTube, Billy sings a beloved tune about the peace and confidence available in Christ, “Blessed Assurance.” It’s a fantastic cover that you’ll want to listen to repeatedly. 

“This is my story, this is my song
 Praising my Savior all the day long
 This is my story, this is my song
 Praising my Savior all the day long”

“Blessed Assurance” is one of those hymns that, despite being rather old, is still frequently sung and performed in churches throughout the country. It’s also been covered and recorded by many different artists, including Alan Jackson and Carrie Underwood. 

There is a reason why that hymn remains so popular. It’s because of the truth contained in the song’s lyrics. There are a lot of questions and unpredictability in life, and people are looking for stability and hope during those trying times. Christ offers all of that and more. He is the Rock among the storm and a firm foundation that we can trust and lean on during trials and tribulations. 

Hebrews 10:22 “Let us draw near with a true heart in full assurance of faith, having our hearts sprinkled from an evil conscience, and our bodies washed with pure water.”
