Lyrics
On Jordan's stormy banks I stand,
And cast a wishful eye
To Canaan's fair and happy land,
Where my possessions lie.
All o'er those wide-extended plains,
Shines one eternal day;
There God, the Son, forever reigns,
And scatters night away.
No chilling winds nor pois'nous breath
Can reach that healthful shore;
Sickness and sorrow, pain and death,
Are felt and feared no more.
When shall I reach that happy place,
And be forever blest?
When shall I see my Father's face,
And in His bosom rest?
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.
And cast a wishful eye
To Canaan's fair and happy land,
Where my possessions lie.
All o'er those wide-extended plains,
Shines one eternal day;
There God, the Son, forever reigns,
And scatters night away.
No chilling winds nor pois'nous breath
Can reach that healthful shore;
Sickness and sorrow, pain and death,
Are felt and feared no more.
When shall I reach that happy place,
And be forever blest?
When shall I see my Father's face,
And in His bosom rest?
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.
