Bound for the Promised Land

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

[Verse 2]
There generous fruits that never fail
On trees immortal grow;
There rocks and hills, and brooks and vales
With milk and honey flow

[Chorus 2x]
I am bound for the promised land
I'm bound for the promised land;
Oh who will come and go with me?
I am bound for the promised land

[Interlude]

[Verse 3]
O the transporting, rapturous scene
That rises to my sight!
Sweet fields arrayed in living green
And rivers of delight!

[Verse 4]
When shall I reach that happy place
I’ll be forever blest
Where shall I see my Father’s face
And in His bosom rest

[Chorus 2x]
I am bound for the promised land
I'm bound for the promised land;
Oh who will come and go with me?
I am bound for the promised land

[Bridge 3x]
I am bound for the prom-
I am bound for the promised land;
Oh who will come and go with me?
I am bound for the promised land

Bound for the promised [5x]
Bound for the promised land
