Promise

Now my heart is low and aching

And the call to the dark gets louder

How long do I keep on fighting

When it no more seems to matter

Yesterday was so much brighter

And I’d seen the light I had, I had

Now it seems to fade a bit more

Am I on my way to a darker side?

But Jesus He delights in me

And He calls on me to “please wait"

How can He when I’m this ugly 

Is it really not already late?

"Hold on just a little longer

And I’ll catch you, I will my child"

Fall into His arms much stronger

And know I’ve tried, I have tried

For when my feet is first step forward

He’s promised to keep up the pace

If my heart should fail the effort

He can still finish my race

My doubts are not enough to stop Him

My enemies aren’t strong enough

His Power delivers all who claim

That Faith is made of stronger stuff

My Lord is a Mighty Saviour

He will move the Heavens, come find me

Vanquish all my fears and failures

He will catch me and then set me free
