[Bb]
I never said that I would give you silver or gold
Or that you would never feel the fire or shiver in the cold
[Eb] But I did say you'd [Bb] never walk through this [Fm]
[Bb] world alone
And [Eb] I did say don't make this world [Bb] your home
[Eb]
[Bb] I didn't say that fear wouldn't find you in the night
Or that loneliness was something you'd never have to fight
[Eb] But I did say I'd be [Bb] right [Cm] there by [Bb] your side
Thank you, sweet Jesus
[Eb] And I did say I'll always help [Bb] you fight
But you [Eb] know I made a promise that I intend to keep
My [Bb] grace will be sufficient in every time of [Eb] need
My love will be the anchor that you can hold on to
[Bb] This is the promise, this is the [F] promise I've [Bb] made to you
I never said that friends would never turn their backs on [Eb] [Bb] you
Or that the world around you wouldn't see you as a fool
[Eb] But I did say like me that you'll [Bb] surely [Eb] [Bb] be despised
[Eb] I did say my ways confound [Bb] the wild
I didn't say you'd never taste the bitter kiss of death
Or have to walk through chilly Jordan [N] to enter it
I never said that I would give you silver or gold
Or that you would never feel the fire or shiver in the cold
[Eb] But I did say you'd [Bb] never walk through this [Fm]
[Bb] world alone
And [Eb] I did say don't make this world [Bb] your home
[Eb]
[Bb] I didn't say that fear wouldn't find you in the night
Or that loneliness was something you'd never have to fight
[Eb] But I did say I'd be [Bb] right [Cm] there by [Bb] your side
Thank you, sweet Jesus
[Eb] And I did say I'll always help [Bb] you fight
But you [Eb] know I made a promise that I intend to keep
My [Bb] grace will be sufficient in every time of [Eb] need

[Bb] This is the promise, this is the [F] promise I've [Bb] made to you
I never said that friends would never turn their backs on [Eb] [Bb] you
Or that the world around you wouldn't see you as a fool

[Eb] I did say my ways confound [Bb] the wild
I didn't say you'd never taste the bitter kiss of death
