Standing on the promises that cannot fail,
When the howling storms of doubt and fear assail,
By the living Word of God I shall prevail,
  Standing on the promises of God.

Standing on the promises I now can see
Perfect, present cleansing in the blood for me;
Standing in the liberty where Christ makes free,
  Standing on the promises of God.

Standing on the promises of Christ the Lord,
Bound to Him eternally by love’s strong cord,
Overcoming daily with the Spirit’s sword,
  Standing on the promises of God.

Bound to Him eternally by love’s strong cord,
Overcoming daily with the Spirit’s sword,
  Standing on the promises of God.

Standing on the promises I shall not fall,
List’ning every moment to the Spirit’s call.
Resting in my Savior as my All in all,
  Standing on the promises of God.
Standing on the promises I shall not fall,
List’ning every moment to the Spirit’s call.
Resting in my Savior as my All in all,
  Standing on the promises of God.

The gift of Christ is God's way of settling all imbalances of life. His promises have not changed. It is settled in heaven, and still redeems anyone that claims them. I am standing everyday on these promises. A mere man may not understand, but the spirit world do!

In a world that is filled with uncertainties, it is comforting to know that children of God can rely on and hold on to the promises of God who is ever faithful.

God's promises is the life line and anchor of every believer. They are strength to the weak and help to the helpless. What a joy to know that we have promises that can never fail.

As followers of Jesus Christ, the words to this song reminds us that we are never alone in our trials, no matter how hard. The Promises of God are Yea and Amen! In this trying time we lean even more heavily on those Promises in His Word!

It's a wonderful thing to know that we can stand on the promises of God knowing they will not fail and knowing we will not fall. I am so thankful for that! Praise God!

This song is quite encouraging during this time in my life when everything in the natural realm and our economy belies God's Word seemingly-everything has been going contrary for me, but this precious song encourages me to continue standing on God's Word because the Word of God is alive and it can not fail me and I shall prevail-not go down in defeat.

Thank you for this wonderful song. It reminds us of God's faithfulness in our missions here in Cambodia for almost 5 years now. Glory to God for calling us into his wonderful service! We can always stand in the unfailing promises of God in our lives! Thank you very much for your good work in God!

Thanks for putting this up.

It reminds us of the unchangeableness of our good God and His love for us. I also like the part about the Spirit's Sword. We need to be constituted with the Word to such an extent that we can stand against the enemy by God's word.

Thank God for the writers of these hymns of old. They speak volumes of our Daddy's goodness, I grew up with these songs when i lived in the flesh and did not mean much to me till I made Christ my savior and thes words have taken up a new meaning to me.

I remember a lot of the classics that one does not hear that often these days.

They were the ones I grew up with. They sing my praises as I once did. The new ones are just as important for future generations as the classics are for mine.

This, by far, was one of my favorites. We stood on the promises of an everlasting God and His Son's words as found in the New Testament.
