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.

Refrain

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.

Refrain

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.

Refrain

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.

Refrain
