Standing on the promises of Christ my King

1
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.
2
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.
3
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.
4
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.
5
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.

Lovely traditional song. My daughter and I have been singing/humming/whistling it constantly since Friday. The old ones are the best. I chose it for this evening's service.

This song was sung on my last sabbath before a cochlear implant. Till then, I was so unsure of what would happen. After this song I knew I could trust in God and His promises. And I now thank Him eternally for the successful operation. He is a faithful God...

I want to thank those responsible for this site and this song that I found tonight. It is giving me great comfort thru a difficult time in my life and tomorrow I will be standing on the promises of God to give me the words to speak when I know that on my own, I could not. Thank You God my Savior.
