1

The Lord has promised good to me,
His word my hope secures;
He will my shield and portion be,
As long as life endures.

2

Yes, when this flesh and heart shall fail,
And mortal life shall cease,
I shall possess, within the veil,
A life of joy and peace.

3

The earth shall soon dissolve like snow,
The sun forbear to shine;
But God, who owns us here below,
Will be forever mine.
