Go to the deeps of God's promise

Full Text

1. Go to the deeps of God's promise;
Ask freely of Him and receive;
All good may be had for the asking,
If, seeking, ye truly believe.
Go to the deeps of God's promise;
There's wideness of meaning untold
In the promises given His people,
And the treasures they ever unfold.

2. Go to the deeps of God's promise,
And know of His wonderful might;
Whatever would be a true blessing,
For Jesus' sake, comes as thy right.
Go to the deeps of God's promise;
There's wideness of meaning untold
In the promises given His people,
And the treasures they ever unfold.

3. Go to the deeps of God's promise;
The blessing is never denied;
He loves, and remembers His children,
And ev'ry good thing is supplied.
Go to the deeps of God's promise;
There's wideness of meaning untold
In the promises given His people,
And the treasures they ever unfold.

4. Go to the deeps of God's promise,
And claim whatsoever ye will;
The blessing of God will not fail thee,
His word He will surely fulfill.
Go to the deeps of God's promise;
There's wideness of meaning untold
In the promises given His people,
And the treasures they ever unfold.
