JUST ONE PROMISE LORD

Lord, I can only keep one promise to you to my dying day!

I can only keep one promise on this Straight and Narrow Way!

I cannot promise you that I will never ever sin!

I cannot promise that when I fight my spiritual battles that I will always win!

I cannot promise you that I will always do what I should!

If I could "trust" my weak frame of flesh I know I surely would!

I cannot promise you I'll always make time to kneel and pray!

I cannot promise you I won't ever stumble over sin along the way!

I cannot promise "anything" to you Most Holy God!

That depends upon my "own strength" along this path I trod!

I cannot promise I won't miss a day of study in your word!

To make a promise to you that I can't keep would be foolish and absurd!

I can only make one promise to you Lord that I know shall never fail!

And I believe that "one promise" will one day take my soul beyond The Vail!

My hope rests in that one promise that I know that I shall forever keep!

And tonight I lay that promise on your Altar as a precious gift so sweet!

There is only one promise Jesus that I "know" that I can keep!

And tonight I lay that promise humbly at your feet!

This is my promise Lord, as you sit lifted up high upon your THRONE beyond the blue!

"I promise that I will always LOVE YOU!"
