I am a promise by The Gaither Vocal Band





I am a promise,
I am a possibility
I am a promise with a capital "P";
I can be anything, anything God wants me to be...

You are a promise!
You are a possibility!
You are a promise with a capital "P"!
You are a great big bundle of potentiality!
And if you'll listen, you'll hear God's voice;
And if you're trying, he'll help you make the right choices
You're a promise to be anything He wants you to be!

You can go anywhere that he wants you to go,
You can be anything that he wants you to be --
You can climb the high mountain,
You can cross the wide sea,
You're a great big promise you see!

I am a promise,
I am a possibility
I am a promise with a capital "P"!
I am a great big bundle of potentiality!
And I am learning to hear God's voice and I am tryin'
To make the right choices;
I'm a promise to be anything God wants me to be!

So keep on list'ning, you'll hear God's voice,
And keep on tryin', He'll help you make the right choices --
You're a promise to be anything He wants you to be!
I'm a promise to be anything God wants me to be!
You're a promise to be anything, anything He wants you to be!

  1. Love this song, which my "Happy Songs" group sang back in the 70s! Tonight, we're "reprising" it for a women's gathering! Thank you for such an unforgettable piece! Mary

  2. Sang this to my two sons when they were very young. They are both very successful musicians. I'm now singing it to my grandson. He's only 2 months old, but hey, he needs to hear these lyrics.

  6. I learned this song as a kid. I'm now almost 40, and it came to mind a a day when I really needed reminding that I'm still growing in Christ. I know you already know this, but the spirit used your song to encourage my soul when I was young and in my middle age! Thanks!

  7. Testimony of financial breakthrough from GOD through the help of Funding Circle Loan INC. (fundingloanplc@yahoo.com OR Call/Text +14067326622)...

    Hi I'am Evelyn Russell resident at 808 NE 19th St Oklahoma City, I am a single mother blessed with 2 daughters. For a while now I have been searching for a genuine loan lender who could help me with a loan as I no longer have a job, all I got were hoodlums who made me trust them and at the end they took my money without giving me any loan, my hope was lost, I got confused and frustrated, it became difficult for my family to feed with a good meal, I never wanted to have anything to do with any loan lending companies on the internet again. Not until I met a Godsent loan lender that changed my life and that of my family Through the help of a fellowship member "a lender with the fear of God in him Mr JASON RAYMOND, he was the man God sent to elevate my family from suffering. At first I thought it wasn’t going to be possible due to my previous experience until I received my loan worth $135,000.00 USD in less then 24hours. So my advise to anyone out there genuinely in need of a loan is to contact Funding Circle Loan INC through this official email:- fundingloanplc@yahoo.com OR Call/Text +14067326622 and be financial lifted.

  10. Love this song!! Makes me think of the 70s when the first Presbyterian Church in downtown Pittsburgh put on this play!! For years I've been looking for the lyrics for "t GOD talks to boys when they're fishing"
    I wish that I still had that album. Is it available in an form? I am a promise was an amazing album!!! From what I understand the recording company that the gaithers recorded under own the copyrights of the album
