United Praise ‎#2

2. It Was Just What He Promised to Do

1 When the dark clouds of trouble pass over,
And the sun shines again in the blue;
Oh, rejoice in God’s love, and remember,
It was just what he promised to do.

Refrain:
It was just what he promised to do,
Our Savior so faithful and true;
Oh, rejoice in his love, and remember,
It was just what he promised to do.

2 When the rivers of sorrow run deepest,
And in safety he beareth you thro’,
On the shores of his mercy, remember,
It was just what he promised to do. [Refrain]

3 As you daily go forth to the conflict,
By his might every foe he’ll subdue;
In the glad day of vict’ry, remember,
It was just what he promised to do. [Refrain]

4 At the close of this life’s little journey,
When his glory shall burst on your view,
As you enter his presence, remember,
It was just what he promised to do. [Refrain]
