162-2. I Promised the Lord
1 Promised the Lord,
I promised the Lord,
If He write my name,
If He write my name,
I'll stay at home,
I'll stay at home,
And I won't run away,
And I won't run away.
2 No, I won't run away,
No, I won't run away,
And I won't go astray,
And I won't go astray.
I'll stay at home,
I'll stay at home,
And I won't run away,
And I won't run away.
3 I'll watch, fight and pray,
I'll watch, fight and pray,
And live Holy every day,
And live Holy every day.
I'll stay at home,
I'll stay at home,
And I won't run away,
And I won't run away.
4 Didn't you promise the Lord,
Didn't you promise the Lord,
If He wrote your name,
If He wrote your name,
You'd stay at home,
You'd stay at home,
And you wouldn't run away,
And you wouldn't run away.
