Songs of Grace and Glory ‎#14

14. He Means Me, Too

1 Is there any firm foundation where my soul may rest secure,
That thro’ time and endless ages shall unshaken be and sure?
When I read the gospel story, tho’ so old, so wondrous new,
In the precept and the promise, does he mean me, too?

Refrain:
Yes, he means me, too, He means me, too,
So day by day I’ll trust him to bring me through;
I know he will not fail me, for his promises are true,
In each one that he has given, he means me, too.

2 When to tempt me Satan whispers, “These are not for you at all,
But for Abraham and Moses, and for Peter, James and Paul;”
Then I press my Bible closer, Jesus’ dying love I view,
And I know in ev’ry promise that he means me, too. [Refrain]

3 I am born of heaven’s Monarch and with Christ am heir of God,
I am in the same old pathway that the saints before me trod;
In me dwells the self-same Sprit, and his witness, sweet and true,
In my heart just now assures me that he means me, too. [Refrain]

4 There shall be a sure fulfillment, faith shall not be turned away,
For our God is just as faithful as he was some other day;
Let us just believe him, brother, and his glory we shall see,
We shall know that ev’ry promise is for you and me. [Refrain]
