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 through this world alone. And I did say, don't
make this world your home.
I didn't say 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 sufficient in
every time of need, My love will be the anchor that you can hold on to.
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, like Me, that you'll surely be despised.
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 through the 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, you'll see Me face to face and you'll sing with the angels and
a countless multitude.
This is the promise. This is the promise I've made to you.'
So, just keep on walking, don't turn
to the left or right, and in the midst of darkness, let this be your light;
that hell can't separate us, and you are gonna make it through.
This is the promise. This is the promise I have made to
you.
