Promise Of A Lifetime
Kutless Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I have fallen to my knees
As I sing a lullaby of pain
I'm feeling broken in my melody
As I sing to help the tears go away
Then I remember the pledge you made to me

I know you're always there
To my every prayer inside
I'm clinging to the promise of a lifetime
I hear the words you say
To never walk away from me and leave behind
The promise of a lifetime

Will you help me fall apart
Pick me up, take me in your arms
Find my way back from the storm
And you show me how to grow
Through the change
I still remember the pledge you made to me

I am holding on to the hope I have inside
With you I will stay through every day




Putting my understanding aside
And I am comforted

;) ooh well, there are many verses in the bible (his word) where God promises us many things.
like such as: that Jesus will come a second time to Earth, and of eternal life when we are saved by him and believe & repent
God is omnipresent, he hears us and walks with us in every step of our life
he is always with us, comforting us =D
basically he promises to be with us for our lifetime... eternity
The verses; well there are a lot which i think maybe if you just searched up even on the int. you could find
e.g. 2 Peter 1:4
And because of his glory and excellence, he has given us great and precious promises. These are the promises that enable you to share his divine nature and escape the world’s corruption caused by human desires.
Philippians 4:19
And my God will supply every need of yours according to his riches in glory in Christ Jesus.
2 Corinthians 1:20 - For all the promises of God in him [are] yea, and in him Amen, unto the glory of God by us.
Titus 1:2 - In hope of eternal life, which God, that cannot lie, promised before the world began;

I know Jesus is more than a song my sister in Christ. You should consider fellowship. You won't want to be around people. He said sactify your self. And God will sactify you. We are meat for the masters use. Created for every good work. His workmanship. Now be blessed in the truth. Bless you sister.

@armandogonzales2689
