He promised to hold my hand

He promised to help me stand

When the valley's too low and the river's too wide

He promised he would lead me to the other side

His promises light my way

Never lead my feet to stray

Livin' in his word I will overcome

Standin' on his promises one by one

I may have to walk to the valley of death

I may not be sure of my very next step

He promised to hold my hand

He promised to help me stand

When the valley's too low and the river's too wide

He promised he would lead me to the other side

His promises light my way

Never lead my feet to stray

Livin' in his word I will overcome

Standin' on his promises one by one

I may have to walk on the water with him

But I don't have to worry if I sink or swim

He promised to hold my hand

He promised to help me stand

When the valley's too low and the river's too wide

He promised he would lead me to the other side

His promises light my way

Never lead my feet to stray

Livin' in his word I will overcome

Standin' on his promises one by one

He promised to hold my hand

He promised to help me stand

When the valley's too low and the river's too wide

He promised he would lead me to the other side

His promises light my way

Never lead my feet to stray

Livin' in his word I will overcome

Standin' on his promises one by one

Livin' in his word I will overcome

Standin' on his promises one by one

One by one by one by one
