I WILL NOT FORGET THEE
1.Sweet is the promise “I will not forget thee”
Nothing can molest or turn my soul away;
E’en though the night be dark within the valley,
Just beyond is shining an eternal day.
CHORUS
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.
2.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.
3.Trusting 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.
4.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.”
