Tune: | [Standing on the promises of Christ my King] |
Composer: | R. Kelso Carter |
1 Standing on the promises of Christ my King,
Thro' 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, standing,
I'm standing on the promises of God.
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 I now can see
Perfect, present cleansing in the blood for me:
Standing in the liberty where Christ makes free,
Standing on the promises of God. [Chorus]
4 Standing on the promises of Christ the Lord,
Bounding to Him eternally by love's strong cord,
Overcoming daily with the Spirits's sword,
Standing on the promises of God. [Chorus]
5 Standing on the promises I cannot fall,
List'ning ev'ry moment to the Spirits's call,
Resting in my Savior, as my all in all,
Standing on the promises of God. [Chorus]
