Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
But all You've established shall hold fast
And on that we can rest assured
And beyond all imaginations
Every promise You have given me will come true
I see You, so sovereign
You are the only God so wise
I can hold You to Your word
You're never wavering
You won't turn, for I am sure
You are the Promise Keeper
Exceeding all my expectations
I find myself believing You with no hesitation
‘Cause You've proven to me You're awesome
I can so clearly see my life is Yours, El Shaddai
I see You, so sovereign
You are the only God so wise
In Your hands You hold my times
I can hold You to Your word
You're never wavering
You won't turn, for I am sure (for I know)
You are the Promise Keeper
Heaven and earth will pass away
Before one word You speak will ever fade
Promise Keeper, Promise Keeper, Promise Keeper
I can hold You to Your word
You're never wavering, You won't turn
For I am sure (For I know)
You are the Promise Keeper
