Take the Promise

Take the pro­mise as you go

Such as true be­liev­ers know;

Hide the Word with­in your heart;

Christ and you can nev­er part.

O Thou bless­èd Son of God

Help me walk where Thou hast trod;

Let Thy pre­sence al­ways be

Life and love and peace to me.

What if round you falls the night?

See the Day­star gleam­ing bright;

What if clouds ob­scure the day?

Christ is with you all the way.

Child of faith

be firm

be strong;

Heav’nly hopes to you be­long;

Tho’ the earth be ov­er­thrown

Christ the Lord will know His own.
