Standing on the promises of Christ, my King,
Through eternal ages let His praises ring;
“Glory in the highest,” I will shout and sing,
Standing on the promises of God.
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. [Chorus]
Standing on the promises of Christ, the Lord,
Bound to Him eternally by love’s strong cord,
Overcoming daily with the Spirit’s sword,
Standing on the promises of God. [Chorus]
Standing on the promises I cannot fall,
List’ning ev’ry moment to the Spirit’s call,
Resting in my Savior as my all in all,
Standing on the promises of God. [Chorus]
Chorus:
Standing, standing,
Standing on the promises of God, my Savior;
Standing, standing, I’m standing on the promises of God.
Russell Kelso Carter, 1886
Read Romans 4:13-20
Scripture is full of God’s promises. Because of His character, His sovereignty and His power, He will keep every single one. Think about the promises He has made to you– to save you, to keep you, to be with you, to bring you into glory, and many others, I’m sure. If you journal write those promises down. Give thanks that God faithful, keeping every promise!
