Standing On the Promise

I'm standing on the promise to be good and honest
nothing is more important than being a servant for 
the good of man kind nothing is more important than 

to let my light shine everyday I wake every breath I
take I try to seek to keep perfect peace with my fellow man
no matter where I stand I want them to understand that life 

is a gift only god can give for that I'm standing on the promises
to up hold to cherish to never let my thoughs parish to always listen
and sit still and let god do his will nothing matters more than this 

that's why I am standing on the promises of love peace and happiness
I'm standing on the promises that no one can ever take this 
I'm standing on the promises of god knowing that he is inside 

every step I take every move I make everyday when I wake I take that stand
knowing that god has my hand.
