Composer: | R. Kelso Carter, 1849-1928 |
1 Standing on the promises of Christ, our King,
Thro' eternal ages let His praises ring;
Glory in the highest, I will shout and sing,
Standing on the promises of God.
Refrain:
Standing, Standing,
Standing on the promises of God, my Saviour,
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. [Refrain]
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. [Refrain]
4 Standing on the promises of Christ, the Lord,
Bound to Him eternally by love's strong chord,
Overcoming daily with the Spirit's sword;
Standing on the promises of God. [Refrain]
5 Standing on the promises I cannot fall,
List'ning ev'ry moment to the Spirit's call;
Resting in my Saviour as my all in all;
Standing on the promises of God. [Refrain]
