And cast a wishful eye
To Canaan's fair and happy land,
Where my possesions lie.
There generous fruits that never fail
On trees immortal grow;
There rocks and hills and brooks and vales
With milk and honey flow.
Chorus
I am bound for the promised land,
I am bound for the promised land
O who will come and go with me
I am bound for the promised land.
O the transporting rapt'rous scene
That rises to my sight;
Sweet fields arrayed in living green
And rivers of Delight.
Chorus
I am bound for the promised land,
I am bound for the promised land
O who will come and go with me
I am bound for the promised land.
Chorus
I am bound for the promised land,
I am bound for the promised land
O who will come and go with me
I am 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 possesions lie. There generous fruits that never fail On trees immortal grow; There rocks and hills and brooks and vales With milk and honey flow. Chorus I am bound for the promised land, I am bound for the promised land O who will come and go with me I am bound for the promised land. O the transporting rapt'rous scene That rises to my sight; Sweet fields arrayed in living green And rivers of Delight. Chorus I am bound for the promised land, I am bound for the promised land O who will come and go with me I am bound for the promised land. Chorus I am bound for the promised land, I am bound for the promised land O who will come and go with me I am bound for the promised land. Explain Request ×
