1 'Tis the promise of God full salvation to give
Unto him who on Jesus, his son will believe.
||: Hallelujah, 'tis done!
I believe on the Son;
I am saved by the blood of the crucified one. :||
2 Tho' the pathway be lonely, and dangerous too,
Surely Jesus is able to carry me through.
3 Many loved ones have I in yon heavenly throng,
They are safe now in glory and this is their song.
4 Little children I see standing close by their king,
And He smiles as their song of salvation they sing.
5 There's a part in that chorus for you and for me
And the theme of our praises forever shall be.
