A true relationship is based on trust
But how do we know when to entrust?
What determines if our word is an empty lie
Is there another way to know
Besides the test of time?
Might there be something in our nature –
Something within our DNA
Cultures all throughout the world
Have practiced and still do today
The goal – to make life better
Improve prosperity
Two twisted wires – stronger than one
If we work together – we will overcome
Everlasting Covenant
A pact sealed in blood
Assuring the promise is authentic
Blood representing life
Lives mixed together
And swearing by the highest oath
Not to be a breaker
To love you like I love myself
Through drought and through floods
Will change the way that I behave
Through truce and through wars
A practice of mutual concession
A promise from both sides
All I own – now your possession
Anything you ask – I’ll do
I’ll stake my life for your protection
I’ll help you to get through
“if you join Me and be My ally
If you love Me and respect
I will give you part of My kingdom
My fortress will protect
Your enemies – My enemies
Your war is My war
This is our oath
If they rise up against you
They will face us both”
Everlasting Covenant

And swearing by the highest oath
Not to be a breaker
To love you like I love myself
Through drought and through floods
Will change the way that I behave
Through truce and through wars
I didn’t have that much to offer
The favor was all on my side
With God on the other side of the table
It was easy to decide
Not much for me to lose and
So very much to gain
The benefits progressed
As He continued to explain
“if you join Me and be my ally
If you love Me and respect
I will give you part of my kingdom
My fortress will protect”
Nothing for me to lose and
So very much to gain
With God Almighty by my side
My life won’t be in vain
Nothing for me to lose and
So very much to gain
With God Almighty by my side
My life won’t be the same
