I
HE PROMISED HE'D NEVER FORSAKE ME
HE PROMISED NEVER TO LEAVE ME ALONE
HE PROMISED TO LEAD ME BESIDE STILL WATERS
WHEN MY HEART WAS HEAVY AS A STONE
HE PROMISED THAT I COULD LIVE FOREVER
IN A LAND WHERE WE'LL NEVER GROW OLD
HE PROMISED LEAVES FOR MY HEALING
THEN HE PROMISED THE HALF WAS NOT TOLD
CHORUS
AND I KNOW GOD'S PROMISES ARE TRUE
HE'S BEEN TRIED AND TESTED AND HE'S ALWAYS COME THROUGH
HE'S BEEN DOWN THRU THE AGES YET HE'S ALWAYS BRANDNEW
YES I KNOW GOD'S PROMISES ARE TRUE
II
HE PROMISED HE'D GO WITH ME THRU THE VALLEY
HE PROMISED SHELTER IN TIME OF THE STORM
HE PROMISED TO SEND BACK THE SPIRIT TO COMFORT
AND LEAD ME WHEN I'M WORN
HE PROMISED A MANSION IN GLORY
IN A LAND WHERE THERE'D BE NO SIN
HE PROMISED A RIVER FLOWING GENTLY
AND THEN HE PROMISED TO COME BACK AGAIN
