Standing On The Promises
R. Kelso Carter

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, standing on the promises)
Standing on the promises of God my Saviour;
Standing ,                  standing,
(Standing on the promises, standing on the promises)
I'm standing on the promises of God.

Standing on the promises that cannot fail,
When the howling storms of doubt and fears assail,
By the living Word of God I shall prevail,
Standing on the promises of God.
Standing,                   standing,
(Standing on the promises, standing on the promises)
Standing on the promises of God my Saviour;
Standing ,                  standing,
(Standing on the promises, standing on the promises)
I'm standing on the promises of God.

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.
Standing,                   standing,
(Standing on the promises, standing on the promises)
Standing on the promises of God my Saviour;
Standing ,                  standing,
(Standing on the promises, standing on the promises)
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, standing on the promises)
Standing on the promises of God my Saviour;
Standing ,                  standing,
(Standing on the promises, standing on the promises)
I'm standing on the promises of God.
