He Promises Eternity
When I read of our His Bible the holy word of our Savior,
I feel the blessings He puts in my heart; mending of my behavior.
My Lord, help me to always look up unto Thee each day.
Help me sweet Lord to listen to your word and learn to Pray.
I sit and look at the brilliant stars at night and I think of Thee.
I think of all the blessings when you come that shall be.
The many gifts you depart unto me Lord; I thank Thee dearly.
Help me to ever listen closely, that I might hear Thee clearly.
Help me Jesus to send your love to others, who are in need.
Help all to know thy word sweet Jesus and plant good seed.
As a little child I had heart from parents, friends and all.
I learned dear Lord that one day; Thou shall come to call.
Help me sweet Savior to prepare daily; Lord to see Thee.
I know Thou art coming soon to set all our old sins free.
Glorious will be the day as we see Thee coming in a cloud.
All lit up dear Jesus in a bright and colored shroud.
Keep me in Thine sights ever; Lord please not let me fall.
Lord, I am waiting and dreaming; for when you come to call.
Show us more and more of Thine own self sweet Jesus; today
Then when you come dear Lord, to Heaven take us away.
