24. There's a promise from the Lord

1 There's a promise from the Lord,
Hallelujah,
'Tis recorded in His word,
Hallelujah,
That the faithful He'll reward,
Hallelujah,
And that promise I believe,
Praise His name.

Chorus:
Hallelujah, Hallelujah,
I am trusting in the Lord,
Hallelujah,
Hallelujah, hallelujah,
I am trusting in the Lord,
Praise His name.

2 Oh, my heart is full of song,
Hallelujah,
I am singing all day long,
Hallelujah,
In my weakness I am strong,
Hallelujah,
And that promise I believe,
Praise His name. [Chorus]

3 Oh, His wondrous grace to me,
Hallelujah,
Shall my theme forever be,
Hallelujah,
With His blood He made me free,
Hallelujah,
I am happy in His love,
Praise His name. [Chorus]

4 To the palace gates on high,
Hallelujah,
He will guide me with His eye,
Hallelujah,
I shall see Him by and by,
Hallelujah,
And in glory at His feet
Praise His name. [Chorus]
