I Could Never Promise You

I could never promise you
On just my strength alone
But all my life I’d care for you
And love you as my own
I’d never known the future
I only see today
Words that last a lifetime
Would be more than I could say
But the love inside my heart today
Is more than mine alone
Never changes, never fails
And never seeks its own
And by the God who gives it
And who lives in me and you
I know the words I speak today
Are words I’m going to do
So I stand before you now
For all to hear and see
Promise you in Jesus' name
A love He’s given me
And through the years on earth
And as eternity goes by
The life and love He’s given us
Are never going to die
So I stand before you now
For all to hear and see
And promise you in Jesus' name
The love He’s given me
And through the years on earth
And as eternity goes by
The life and love He’s given us
Are never going to die
The life and love He’s given us
Are never going to die
