The Lord Promised
The Lord has said He’d ne’er give us
more than we can bear.
And when it seems He does
just remember He is there.
When life gets hard and troubled
and we don’t understand,
Remember, we will someday,
in that golden promise land.
It’s hard to see the reasons
with our dark and shaded eyes.
But someday they’ll be open
in the land beyond the skies.
For now, just cling to Jesus.
He will carry you through.
He’ll hold your heart and sorrow
and always be with you.
