#175: Standing on the Promises

(Part of a series singing through the hymnbook I grew up with: Great Hymns of the Faith)

1

Standing on the promises of Christ my King,

Thru eternal ages let His praises ring;

Glory in the highest I  will shout and sing,

Standing on the promises of God.

CHORUS

Standing, standing, Standing on the promises of God my Savior;

(standing on the promises, standing on the promises,)

Standing, standing, I’m standing on the promises of God.

(standing on the promises, standing on the promises,)

2

Standing on the promises that cannot fail,

When the howling storms of doubt and fear assail,

By the living word of God I shall prevail,

Standing on the promises of God.

CHORUS

3

Standing on the promises of Christ the Lord,

Bound to Him eternally by love’s strong cord,

Overcoming daily with the Spirit’s sword,

Standing on the promises of God.

CHORUS

4

Standing on the promises I cannot fall,

List’ning ev’ry moment to the Spirit’s call,

Resting in my Savior as my all in all,

Standing on the promises of God.

CHORUS
