All The Promises Of God In Him Are Yea

All the Promises of God in Him Are Yea is a hymn that reflects directly on the assurance given in 2 Corinthians 1:20. This verse reminds believers that every promise God has made finds its fulfillment in Christ, and through Him, those promises are confirmed to His people with certainty. The hymn emphasizes the believer’s confidence in God’s unfailing Word and Christ’s unchanging character.

Though the exact authorship is uncertain, the hymn fits within the tradition of gospel songs that were especially popular in the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. These songs often used Scripture almost verbatim to create easily remembered texts that could be sung in revivals, camp meetings, and Sunday school gatherings. This hymn, built around the strong biblical phrase “in Him are yea, and in Him Amen,” helps singers anchor their faith in the reliability of God’s promises.

The message of the hymn is one of assurance and rest. It points Christians away from self-reliance and uncertainty, urging them instead to rest upon Christ, in whom every divine word is guaranteed. Singing it affirms that God’s promises are not conditional upon human effort but secured by the finished work of Jesus. For generations, believers have drawn encouragement from its reminder that when doubts or trials arise, they can stand firm on the promises of God, knowing that in Christ, all are true and sure.
