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.
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 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.
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 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.
Perfect, present cleansing in the blood for me;
Standing in the liberty where Christ makes free,
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.
Bound to Him eternally by love's strong cord,
Overcoming daily with the Spirit's sword,
Standing on the promises of God.

Standing on the promises I shall not fall,
List'ning every moment to the Spirit's call.
Resting in my Savior as my All in all,
Standing on the promises of God.
List'ning every moment to the Spirit's call.
Resting in my Savior as my All in all,
Standing on the promises of God.

I thought about it after talking to God and guess what?

I was having my morning devotions today and was praying to God about the current financial crises in the UK at the moment where we will see energy prices sky-rocketing, and people stressed, and worried, and the Holy Spirit reminded me to continually put my trust in the Lord, and He will come through for me. This song dropped in my spirit, and I began to sing just the chorus, then I looked it up and found this site. Brilliant site, I can now look up songs I learn from a boy growing up in the Caribbean.

We've just sung this song in church. Conditions in my country can cause despair. But I'm reminded of God's promises that are sustainable and faithful.

I prayed for children returning to school for peace when faced with daily challenges, then remembered this song from my childhood. I found these lyrics and found they are so similar to my prayer. Hearing this hymn has truly been a comfort to me today.
