“Blessed Assurance” is a classic hymn that continues to be widely used in worship, and this Blessed Assurance chord chart gives guitar players a simple way to lead it in both traditional and modern settings. The song has a rich, uplifting feel and works especially well in reflective or celebratory moments, with a melody that’s familiar and easy for congregations to sing.
The chords follow a familiar hymn-style progression and are written in 6/8 time, giving the song a flowing, rhythmic feel that’s a little different from standard 4/4 patterns. Once you’re comfortable with the timing, it comes together naturally on acoustic guitar or with a full band. You can play it in the key of D as written or adjust with a capo depending on your vocal range. This chart is available in the key of D.
