We must trust the hands that we cannot see, that's how we become who we're born to be,
A faith made pure, like a cross of gold, here in a dying world that's the only thing we can ever hold.
A promise made is a promise kept,
There is a love so true,
Just hold on; God is holding on to you,
Day by day, prayer by prayer,
Oh, don't you ever forget that a promise made is a promise kept.
Yeah,
Ooh,
Oh yeah.
Through the waiting years and the tears we've cried,
If our dreams come true or remain denied, the greatest gift, far beyond compare, is to realise when we call on God we will find him there.
Because a promise made is a promise kept,
There is a love so true, a love so true,
Just hold on; God is holding on to you, ooh,
Day by day, prayer by prayer,
Oh, don't you ever forget that a promise made, it's a promise kept.
And God isn't sleeping,
Oh, you know that he isn't blind,
And our prayers will be answered in his own way, in his own time, yeah.
Promise kept,
It's a promise kept,
Just hold on; God is holding on to you, ooh,
Day by day, prayer by prayer,
No, don't you ever forget that a promise made, yeah, it's a promise kept.
That's right,
Alright,
Don't you know it's a promise kept?
Oh yeah,
It's a promise made,
Don't you ever forget,
Ooh, ooh, ooh,
Oh, don't you know it's a promise kept now?
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah,
Oh,
Oh yeah.
A promise made is a promise kept,
A promise made is a promise kept,
A promise made is a promise kept,
Don't you ever forget, yeah, yeah, yeah,
A promise made is a promise kept,
