I got mixed up! I was trying to play Leaning On the Everlasting Arms but when I got to the chorus, my brain switched to Standing on the Promises of God. Haha! I got really confused trying to match the lyrics for posting, and then finally figured out what had happened when I recorded weeks before. Oh well!

LEANING ON THE EVERLASTING ARMS
Elisha A. Hoffman (1887)

What a fellowship, what a joy divine
leaning on the everlasting arms
what a blessedness, what a peace is mine
leaning on the everlasting arms

Leaning, leaning
safe and secure from all alarms
leaning, leaning
leaning on the everlasting arms

O how sweet to walk in this pilgrim way
leaning on the everlasting arms
O how bright the path grows from day to day
leaning on the everlasting arms

What have I to dread, what have I to fear
leaning on the everlasting arms?
I have blessed peace with my Lord so near
leaning on the everlasting arms

STANDING ON THE PROMISES OF GOD
Russell K. Carter (1886)

Standing on the promises of Christ my King
Through eternal ages let His praises ring
Glory in the highest, I will shout and sing
Standing on the promises of God

Standing, standing
Standing on the promises of God my Savior
Standing, standing
I’m standing on the promises of God

Standing on the promises that cannot fail
When the howling storms of doubt and fear assail
By the living Word of God I shall prevail
Standing on the promises of God

Standing on the promises I now can see
Perfect, present cleansing in the blood for me
Standing in the liberty where Christ makes free
Standing on the promises of God

Standing on the promises of Christ the Lord
Bound to Him eternally by love’s strong cord
Overcoming daily with the Spirit’s sword
Standing on the promises of God

Standing on the promises I cannot fall
Listening every moment to the Spirit’s call
Resting in my Savior as my all in all
Standing on the promises of God
