This Promise I Will Make You
[Intro]
Bb Eb F Bb
[Verse 1]
Bb Eb
There’s a land of milk and honey somewhere across the tide
F Bb
And earthly pilgrims soon shall go there, if they’re among the bride
Bb Eb
Tis a land that knows no parting, neither sickness, pain or care
F Bb
And this promise I will make you, I will meet you over there
[Chorus]
Bb Eb
This promise I will make you, should we never meet again
F Bb
On this side of the river, in this lowly land of sin
Bb Eb
I’ll be present in that number, robe and garments pure and white
F Bb
And you will find me in that city standing somewhere near the line
[Break]
Bb Eb F Bb
[Verse 2]
Bb Eb
Just a veil that separates us, from that land of rapture sweet
F Bb
Then we’ll view that land of splendor, and our loved ones we shall meet
Bb Eb
Think of waking on some morning, and the Saviors face behold
F Bb
Then we’ll praise His name forever, on the streets of purest gold
[Chorus]
Bb Eb
This promise I will make you, should we never meet again
F Bb
On this side of the river, in this lowly land of sin
Bb Eb
I’ll be present in that number, robe and garments pure and white
F Bb
And you will find me in that city standing somewhere near the line
[Outro]
F Bb
And you will find me in that city standing somewhere near the line
