This week’s featured song story comes to us from Hope Darst. We’re excited to share with you the story behind her song “Promise Keeper.”
“What I’ve found over the years of walking with God for so long now is that His goodness is always surrounding us and it is always in the circumstance. It’s just whether or not we have the eyes to see even in the midst of loss, even in the midst of sometimes grieving things that aren’t good or don’t feel good. His goodness is still a promise that He never ever fails us.” – Hope Darst

“Promise Keeper” Lyrics
Your vow’s a covenant unbroken
You’ve made it known through history
Your love will never be unfaithful
Never walk out on me
Never walk out on me
I have no reason to doubt You
Who You have been You’ll always be
And though the future’s still unfolding
With everything I’ve seen
How could I not believe
You are a promise keeper
Your word will never fail
My heart can trust You, Jesus
I won’t be overwhelmed
My eyes are gonna see
Miracles and victories
You are a promise keeper
And Your word will never fail
You will return all that’s been stolen
There’s nothing that You can’t redeem
And though the story’s still unfolding
With everything I’ve seen
How could I not believe (You are)
You are a promise keeper
Your word will never fail
My heart can trust You, Jesus
I won’t be overwhelmed
My eyes are gonna see
Miracles and victories
You are a promise keeper
And Your word will never fail
(I know You’re word never fail)
I’ll see Your goodness in the land of the living
I’ll see Your goodness right here right now
You know the ending before the beginning
I know that You have worked all things out
(I know)
I’ll see Your goodness in the land of the living
I’ll see Your goodness right here right now (I will)
You know the ending before the beginning
I know that You have worked all things out
I know, I know
You are a promise keeper
Your word will never fail
My heart can trust You, Jesus
I won’t be overwhelmed
My eyes are gonna see
Miracles and victories (‘cause)
You are a promise keeper
And Your word will never fail
I’ll see Your goodness in the land of the living
I’ll see Your goodness right here right now (oh, oh)
You know the ending before the beginning
I know that You have worked all things out
(I’ll see it)
I’ll see Your goodness (I see Your goodness)
In the land of the living (Oh, it’s all around me, God)
I’ll see Your goodness right here right now
You know the ending (I‘ll trust You, God)
Before the beginning (I trust You’ve worked it all out)
I know that You have worked all things out
