You Gave Me A Promise Lyrics
The waves are crashing down on me
But I know that this cannot be the end, be the end…
Right now I feel like copping out
Will You hold me up, if I just say
That I will stay
I will hold on to this hope that I have
You gave me a promise
You gave me a promise
I’ll push through this moment, I’ll never give up
You gave me a promise
You gave me a promise
I’m so tired that I can’t stand
But I know that time will heal this heart, heal this heart…
With every door that’s slamming shut
A new one’s there to lead me where You are
You, You call out to me
You’re just out of reach
But I’m closing in
I’m still going, still believing in Your word
But I know that this cannot be the end, be the end…
Right now I feel like copping out
Will You hold me up, if I just say
That I will stay
You gave me a promise
You gave me a promise
I’ll push through this moment, I’ll never give up
You gave me a promise
You gave me a promise
I’m so tired that I can’t stand
You’re just out of reach
But I’m closing in
I’m still going, still believing in Your word

To me, this song is about perservering in the toughest times.
"I'm so tired that I can't stand" -- I know that we've all had moments like this. To be so fed up, to be so broken and exhausted from fighting off whatever is causing the suffering...
And then to remember that God gave us a promise that He loves us, and while we're on earth we'll face trials and tribulations BUT HE HAS OVERCOME THE WORLD. Read John 16:33. I live by this verse.
God bless you all.
