And the night draws near
And the day is past and gone
At the river I'll stand
Guide my feet, hold my hand

He Never Lied to Me

Words and music: Danice Sweet
This song also appeared on Stone by Stone by Revival.
Lead: Danice Sweet

Lyrics:

Well I know that God
He promised me
That He would always be there
Though fame and fortune flee
And friends have come and gone
I will not worry for I am not alone
One day my faith grew weak
I stood on a troubled sea
I began to drown but Jesus lifted me
Well He came just in time
And now I’m doing fine
And He never lied to me
He never, He never, He never, no...

Chorus:
He never lied to me (He never, no, He never lied to me)
Oh, my Jesus (He never, no, He never lied to me)
He never lied to me (He never, no, He never lied to me)
He said when you get weary (He never, no, He never lied to me)
Just put your trust in me (He never, no, He never lied to me)
I’ll see you through all eternity (He never, no, He never lied to me)
One day my faith grew weak (He, He, He never lied to me)
I stood on a troubled sea (He never, no, He never lied to me)
I began to drown (He never, no, He never lied to me)
But Jesus lifted me (He never, no, He never lied to me)
He said He’d be my friend
Until the very end
And He never lied to me

Promises I’ve made
I haven’t kept
Some things I’ve said
I sure regret
But this thing I know
I was lost and now I’m found
He brought me to some very solid ground
If your faith is weak
And you’re on a troubled sea
I won’t let you drown
There’s hope for you and me
I’ll throw you a life-line
And we’ll be doing fine
And He never lied to me
He never, He never, He never, no...

Repeat Chorus (x2)

No He never lied, no He never lied
He never lied to me

Scriptural Reference:

"Paul, a servant of God and an apostle of Jesus Christ for the faith of God's elect and the knowledge of the truth that leads to godliness--  a faith and knowledge resting on the hope of eternal life, which God, who does not lie, promised before the beginning of time,  and at his appointed season he brought his word to light through the preaching entrusted to me by the command of God our Savior."  Titus 1:1-3
