The Promise
Author: The Martin's
Artist: The Martin's
I never said that I would give you silver or gold.
or that you would never feel the fire or shiver in the
cold.
But I did say you'd never walk thru this world alone.
Aand I did say, don't make this world your home.
I never said that fear wouldn't find you in the night.
Or that loneliness was something you'd
never have to fight.
But I did say I'd be right there by your side.
And I did say I'll always help you fight.
Cause you know I made a promise, that I intend to keep.
My grace will be sufficent in every time of need.
My love will be the anchor that you can hold onto.
This is the promise, this is the promise I've made to you .
I never said that friends would never turn
their backs on you.
Or that the world around
you wouldn't see you as a fool.
But I did say you'll surley be dispised.
and I did say My ways confound the wise.
I didn't say you'd never taste the bitter kiss of death.
Or have to walk thru chilly Jordan to enter into rest.
But I did say I'd be waiting,
right on the other side. and I did say,
I'll dry every tear you've cried.
Cause you know I made a promise,
that I've prepared a place.
And some day sooner than you
think I'll see you face to face.
And you'll sing with the angels and a countless multitude.
This is the promise,
this is promise I've made to you.
So right. and in the midst of darkness, let this be your
light.
That hell can't separate us, your gonna make it thru.
This is the promise, this is the promise I've made to you.
Oh, this is the promise,
this is the promise I've made to you.
