I’ll tarry at a promise
Till Jesus meets me there
He comes along the promise way;
His words
so free and gracious
I’ll take to Him in prayer
He comes along the promise way.
Glory! glory! My Savior comes to me
His bright and blessèd light I see;
Glory! glory! He meets my soul today
He comes along the promise way.
From sin I sought salvation
And called upon His name
He comes along the promise way;
O come
ye heavy laden
His grace is still the same
He comes along the promise way.
With every word He gives me
I hasten to His feet
He comes along the promise way;
He fills me with His Spirit
He makes my joy complete
He comes along the promise way.
When earthly blossoms perish
And wintry storms appear
He comes along the promise way;
He soothes my heart in trouble
He dries the falling tear
He comes along the promise way.
