[Verse 1]
Standing on the promises of Christ my King
Through eternal ages let his praises ring
Glory in the highest, I will shout and sing
Standing on the promises of God

[Chorus]
Standing, standing
Standing on the promises of God my Savior
Standing, standing
I'm standing on the promises of God

[Verse 2]
Standing on the promises I cannot fall
Listening every moment to the Spirit's call
Resting in my Savior as my all in all
Standing on the promises of God

[Chorus]
