You Gave Me A Promise

Fireflight is one of my new bands that I really like, and this song is absolutely the song of my heart right now. The past couple nights have been really hard for me in a pain perspective, and sometimes it's really hard to remember that this pain isn't going to last forever and that there is a light at the end of the tunnel. I think my dad is starting to pick up on it too, because for the past couple days he's been constantly reminding me that the pain will go away and it will get better. I like to fancy myself Wonder Woman, this picture of bravery and strength....but I'm fighting to maintain that, and frankly I'm losing. But like this song says, God has given me so many promises that this pain is not forever and He is watching out for me and taking care of me. And right now I just need to cling to that...under the lyrics there is a link so you can listen to this song if you want...definitely recommend it!

The waves are crashing down on me
But I know that this cannot be the end, be the end
Right now I feel like copping out
Will You hold me up, if I just say
That I will stay?

I will hold on to this hope that I have
You gave me a promise, You gave me a promise
I'll push through this moment, I'll never give up
You gave me a promise, You gave me a promise

I'm so tired that I can't stand
But I know that time will heal this heart, heal this heart
With every door that's slamming shut
A new one's there to lead me where You, where You are

I will hold on to this hope that I have
You gave me a promise, You gave me a promise
I'll push through this moment, I'll never give up
You gave me a promise, You gave me a promise

You call out to me
You're just out of reach
But I'm closing in
I'm still going, still believing in Your word
