I Am Bound for the Promised Land
Author: Samuel Stennett

Albums: Greater (1983)


1. On Jordan’s stormy banks I stand
And cast a wishful eye
To Canaan’s fair and happy land
Where my possessions lie


(Chorus)
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


Repeat Chorus


2. O'er all those wide extended plains
Shines one eternal day;
There Christ the Son forever reigns,
And scatters night away.



3. When shall I reach that happy place
And be forever blessed
When shall I see my father’s face
And in His bosom rest


Repeat Chorus twice
