O take some pre­cious pro­mise
And rest thy soul there­in,
Wait for thy Lord to meet thee there to­day;
For He His word hath giv­en
Which ne’er hath brok­en been,
He al­ways comes along that way.

Refrain

He al­ways comes along that way;
He al­ways comes along that way;
Come rest upon His pro­mise,
Ne’er doubt what it may say,
He al­ways comes along that way.

Each pro­mise is most pre­cious,
And cheer­ing to the soul,
For Je­sus is the glo­ry of its lay;
Whate’er He says He’s able—
E’en waves and winds con­trol,
He al­ways comes along that way.

Refrain

When wea­ry of earth’s tri­als,
When sor­rows great op­press,
Go find the bless­èd Lord with­out de­lay;
He’s pro­mised to re­lieve thee
Of bur­dens and dis­tress,
He al­ways comes along that way.
