Jesus’ Promise 

This song is based on my memory of how sweet the promise of Jesus came to me in my 1972 Ford pickup as I called out to him to save my lost soul.  Gene Brush and Lester Glassel had showed me Romans 10:13 the night before, along with some other passages.  But I remembered the one about whosoever calling upon the name of Jesus will be saved.

This song was an experiment for me in that I used somebody else’s tune.  This tune is based on Lorena from the Civil War period.  I also heard it used in John Wayne films.  I have thought of changing the melody, and finally did so.
