Words and music: R. Kelso Carter (1849-1922)

I'm standing, I'm standing
Standing on the promises of God
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

Standing, I'm standing
Standing on the promises of God my Saviour
Standing, I'm standing on the promises of God

Standing on the promises that cannot fail
When howling storms of doubt and fear assail
By the living word of God I shall prevail
Standing on the promises of God

Standing on the promises of Christ the Lord
Bound to Him eternally by love's strong cord
Overcoming daily by the Spirit's sword
Standing on the promises of God

Standing on His promises I cannot fall
Listening every moment to the Spirit's call
Resting in my Saviour as my all in all
Standing on the promises of God

Standing on the promise of His living word
Formed within my heart so that it can be heard
So that when I hear His voice I will be stirred
To keep standing on the promises of God

Yes, I keep standing, I'm standing
Standing on the promises of God my Saviour
Standing, I'm standing, standing on the promise
Standing on the promise, standing on the promise of God
