God's promises

So it has been a while.  But I wanted to share a song that I have grown to like in the last few months.  Raising support to be a missionary has felt like shadowlands at times.  I have found this a good reminder of the promises of God and that I am not alone in the struggles of life.  The last line is the key to it all.  Do you believe that God will never leave, won't give more than we can bear, will be there when we cry out, or that He will breathe life to your soul?

You promised me that You'd never leave, or let me goYou promised me that You'd love me through the highs and lowsYou promised me You won't give me more than I can bearYou promised me that when I cry out that You'd be there 
The shadowlands are what I knowSo I'm hanging on to Your every wordThe shadowlands surround me nowBut You walk with me through the cloudInto the sun, into the sun 
You promised me if I sow in tears, I'll reap in joyYou promised me that You will breathe life into my soul 
The shadowlands are what I knowSo I'm hanging on to Your every wordThe shadowlands surround me nowBut You walk with me through the cloudInto the sun, into the sun 
I know it's true all that You sayI believe in You and I am standing onThe promises you've made, hey, hey 
The shadowlands are what I knowSo I'm hanging on to Your every wordThe shadowlands surround me nowBut You walk with me through the cloud 
Into the sun, into the sun, the sunInto the sun, into the sun 
You promised me and I believe

And while you are here, take a listen to the song.
