The Promise
|
|
For
cold lonely nights at the
bedside he lived.
He was
praying to God who knew
how he felt.
He said, I
promised mama when you
called her away.
That we'd
be together in just a
few days.
Sixty
three years we learned
to accept
And the
promises we made we always
kept.
Now Lord I
know it's not
for me to decide.
But Lord
I'm ready to join
mama's side.
Chorus
My son
come on home and be
with your bride.
For in my
kingdom you'll be
by her side.
You'll
stroll hand in hand and
forever be kept.
For the
promise I made on the cross will be
kept.
Gentle
old man ended on a
sleep.
Never more
to awaken never more
to weep.
God kept
His promise that stood
through the years.
Accept
God's promise and you'll
have no more tears.
Chorus
My son
come on home and be
with your bride.
For in my
kingdom you'll be
by her side.
You'll
stroll hand in hand and
forever be kept.
For the
promise I made on the cross will be
kept.
You'll
stroll hand in hand and
forever be kept.
For the
promise I made on the cross will be
kept.
Will be kept.
