Passage:
1 Moses spoke to the heads of the tribes of the people of Israel, saying, “This is what the Lord has commanded.
2 If a man vows a vow to the Lord, or swears an oath to bind himself by a pledge, he shall not break his word. He shall do according to all that proceeds out of his mouth.”
(Numbers 30:1-2 ESV)

Lyrics:
I can always call you father
You chose me as your child
And your word is always faithful
You will not turn aside
Now I live in full assurance
For my savior paid that price
Every promise that you made me
Is yes in Jesus Christ
You are faithful to your promises
We will trust in what the cross has said
Through the ages hallelujah you are
Faithful to your promises
Are you with us in the fire
Will you keep us in the storm
Are you still the light that guides us
When the darkness overwhelms
Through the doubts and through the valleys
Through the passing years we find
Every promise you have spoken
Is yes in Jesus Christ
You will be our God
We will be your people
You will be with us
Keep us from all evil
Every promise made
Is a promise kept
You are faithful to your promises
You began this work within us
You will bring it to the end
You're the one who goes before us
You will have the last Amen
So we set our hope upon this
An on this we build our lives
All your promises forever
Are yes in Jesus Christ
Prayer:
You, Lord, have become my hope, my comfort, my strength, my all! In you does my soul rejoice. The darkness vanished from before my eyes, and I beheld you, the sun of righteousness. When I loved darkness, I knew you not, but wandered on from night to night. But you led me out of that blindness; you took me by the hand and called me to yourself, and now I can thank you, and your mighty voice which has penetrated to my inmost heart. Amen.
-Augustine
