I’m Standing On The Promises (Poem) Poem by Dave Tanguay

The Lord get’s around, you’d be surprised
He is there when you need him, - he’s quite undisguised

Although some might believe, they can live without him
Count him out of your life and your future can look dim

The problems we face every day of our life
Can be solved very easily when we eliminate the strife

Before you lay down to sleep at night
Say a prayer from your heart - and your soul you ignite

Living our lives can demand from us - a great deal of labor
Just remember the fruits of your work - is mainly for your neighbor

For we were not put on this earth just for ourselves
We work for our Lord; we are all his little elves

Freedom isn’t free we must earn it as we go along
When the path gets weary - sing a little song

My Lord I am trusting - give me strength and courage
When I meet hardships - let me not get discouraged

I’m standing on the promises - Lord build a place for me
In your heavenly home - I come to you on bended knee
