I'm Bound For The Promised Land |
| On Jordan’s stormy banks I stand, |
| And cast a wishful eye |
| To Canaan’s fair and happy land, |
| Where my possessions lie. |
| I am bound for the promised land, |
| I am bound for the promised land; |
| Oh who will come and go with me? |
| I am bound for the promised land. |
| O’er all those wide extended plains |
| Shines one eternal day; |
| There God the Son forever reigns, |
| And scatters night away. |
| I am bound for the promised land, |
| I am bound for the promised land; |
| Oh who will come and go with me? |
| I am bound for the promised land. |
| No chilling winds or poisonous breath |
| Can reach that healthful shore; |
| Sickness and sorrow, pain and death, |
| Are felt and feared no more. |
| I am bound for the promised land, |
| I am bound for the promised land; |
| Oh who will come and go with me? |
| I am bound for the promised land. |
| When I shall reach that happy place, |
| I’ll be forever blessed, |
| For I shall see my Father’s face, |
| And in His bosom rest. |
