THE PROMISE KEEPER

By "Rebekah" the Bride

(Romans 3:4; Hebrews 6:18)

***
The Bible tells us clearly, and on this we can rely,
That it is just impossible for our dear Lord to lie.
Though every man might lie to you, there's one thing that is true:
It really is impossible for God to lie to you.
***
Since God is not a liar, then it means we can agree
That if He makes a promise, He will keep it faithfully.
The Bible's filled with promises that God has made to us.
What really pleases Him is if His promises we trust.
***
We can't be separated from the love He has for us.
This promise to believers is a promise we can trust.
We'll always be accepted by the Lord eternally;
And that's a precious promise that He's made to you and me!
***
No one can snatch you from Him, yes, God will hang onto you.
Do you believe that promise, do you just believe it's true?
Your sins have been forgiven by the Lord at Calvary.
You need not fear God's judgment, for from that you've been made free.
***
This is my favorite promise: My dear Lord's at peace with me.
Because Christ is my Savior, then His peace is mine, you see.
He will not take it from me and I know that this is true.
Believers, what a promise: your dear Lord's at peace with you!
***
Since we are just weak people, then we need someone to live
The Christian life within us and to us the victory give.
This promise that Christ gave us, it will fill that need, you'll see:
"I'll live My life through you, yes, I will be your victory."
***
I could go on much longer, His good promises to tell;
But these are just a few of them that we should all know well.
Oh, love and peace, forgiveness and acceptance every day,
Believe that God has promised that they'll never go away.
***
Sometimes, because we love God, we will make a promise, too.
We say to God, "This good thing, I will surely do for You."
And even though we meant it when that promise, it was made,
Sometimes we break the promise that we gave Him when we prayed.
***
Christ told us not to make vows that we promise God we'll keep,
Because He knows we're human and that in our flesh we're weak.
The chances are we'll break vows, then we will feel really bad.
We'll think that we have failed God and then that will make us sad.
***
You're not a promise keeper, oh, let's face it, it is true.
I mean the ones that you make to the Lord, "Oh, this I'll do.
I promise I will never, ever do wrong things today."
That sets the stage for failure and then victory goes away.
***
Oh, God's the Promise Keeper, just believe it, for it's true.
He'll always keep His promises that He has made to you.
We're not called to make promises to God, we need to see;
We're called to just believe the ones He's made to you and me.
***
Yes, God's the Promise Keeper, such a perfect one is He.
Since we're not perfect, we're not sure we'll keep ours faithfully.
I am so glad that He will keep His promises to us.
I love our Promise Keeper, He's the one whom we can trust.
