Promises
by Tanya Goodman Sykes

Album: Promises

When I open the mornin' paper
Too many faces I see
Filled with pain and heartache
Touched by tragedy
And I hear it on the radio
The world's in a sad shape, you know
Sometimes it would be easy to let go

But the promises You give me
Are more than enough
To keep my heart from sinkin'
When the goin' gets tough
And I know no matter where I am
I'm safe inside Your loving hand
And I will always have
Your promises to keep

When sleepless hours find me
Staring into dark
And the fear of things I do not know
You know it wraps around my heart
I just hold Your promise tight
Against the loneliness of night
And every doubt inside is put to flight

'Cause the promises You give me
Are more than enough
To keep my heart from sinkin'
When the goin' gets tough
And I know no matter where I am
I'm safe inside Your loving hand
And I will always have
Your promises to keep

There is no explanation
For every situation
Oh, but I can have peace
Even in times like these

'Cause the promises You give me
Are more than enough
To keep my heart from sinkin'
When the goin' gets tough
And I know no matter where I am
I'm safe inside Your loving hand
And I will always have
Your promises to keep

Hey, yeah, yeah, yeah
(Promises to keep)
Na-na-na, na, na, na, na
Na-na-na, na, na, na, na
(Promises to keep)
Oh-whoa...
