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, standing,
Standing on the promises
of God my Savior;
Standing, standing,
I’m 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.
Standing, standing,
Standing on the promises
of God my Savior;
Standing, standing,
I’m standing on the promises of God.
Standing on the promises
I now can see
Perfect, present cleansing i
n the blood for me;
Standing in the liberty
where Christ makes free,
Standing on the promises of God.
Standing, standing,
Standing on the promises
of God my Savior;
Standing, standing,
I’m standing on the promises of God.
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.
Standing, standing,
Standing on the promises
of God my Savior;
Standing, standing,
I’m standing on the promises of God.
Standing on the promises
I cannot fall,
Listening every moment
to the Spirit’s call
Resting in my Savior as my all in all,
Standing on the promises of God.
Standing, standing,
Standing on the promises
of God my Savior;
Standing, standing,
I’m standing on the promises of God.
