Hymn 33
Sweet is the promise "I will not forget thee"
Sweet is the promise "I will not forget thee".
Nothing can molest or turn my soul away;
E'en tho' the night be dark within the valley
Just beyond is shinning an eternal day
I will not forget thee or leave thee,
In My hands I'll hold thee, in My arms I'll fold thee
I will not forget thee or leave thee
I am Thy Redeemer, I will care for thee.
How can i show my gratitude to Jesus
For His love unfailing and His tender care?
I will proclaim to others His salvation,
That they may accept Him and His promise share
Trust the promise "I will not forget thee"
Onward will I go with songs of joy and praise
Though earth despise me, though my friends forsake me
Jesus will be near me, gladdening my days
When at the golden portals I am standing,
All my tribulations, all my sorrows past,
How sweet to hear the blessed proclamation
"Enter faithful servant welcome home, at last.
