The Promise Song

Oh if you keep my word
I'll make you as a tree
Planted by the streams of life
If you'll submit to me
And if you love the hateful ones
Who mistreat you constantly
The book of life shall bear your name
If you love your enemies
Yes, Lord Jesus
Yes, Lord Jesus
And if you do my will
I'll make you living stones
To build up in my father's house
If you serve me alone
And if you love all men
Especially the least
I'll raise you up, the lowest ones
And make you kings and priests
Yes, Lord Jesus
Yes, Lord Jesus
And if you'll seek my face
And set your life apart
I'll let myself be found by you
When you search with all your heart
And if you never turn aside
To the left or to the right
I'll be a lamp unto your feet
And keep you on the path of light
Yes Lord Jesus
Yes Lord Jesus
Yes Lord Jesus
Yes Lord Jesus
