How many times have we promised
To do things for our God?
Most of us can’t carry through
And we don’t think that’s odd.
We all pledge to be faithful
To do the things that we say.
But we can’t give up our lives
No even for a day.
Yet we have lost our direction
Just wander ‘round and ‘round
Standing in rain that is God’s tears
We know He’s wearing a frown.
But His blessed assurance.
Is to be faithful and just.
While we were still sinners
Jesus paid the price for us.
Jesus projects an example
Of how loyal we can be.
He stands before the Father
Pleading for you and me.
Do you know what I’ve decided
To be steadfast in my pledge,
To say the things that I mean.
Not giving saten the edge.
I will be dedicated
To the one that created me.
He will fulfill his promise
And make me sin free.
