I Can Only Promise
I can promise
To be sincere;
But sweet Lord,
It is You alone
Who have to make me sincere.
To be sincere;
But sweet Lord,
It is You alone
Who have to make me sincere.
I can promise
To be good;
But beloved Lord,
It is You alone
Who can and will
Make me eternally and supremely good.
