C G C
On Jordan's stormy banks I stand
G
And cast a wishful eye
C
To Canaan's fair and happy land
G C
Where my possessions lie
CHORUS:
G
I am bound for the promised land
C G
I’m bound for the promised land
C
Oh who will come and go with me
G C
I am bound for the promised land
G C
O'er all those wide extended plains
G
Shines on eternal day
C
There God the Son forever reigns
G C
And scatters night away
CHORUS:
G
I am bound for the promised land
C G
I’m bound for the promised land
C
Oh who will come and go with me
G C
I am bound for the promised land
G C
When shall I reach that happy place
G
And be forever blessed
C
When shall I see my Father's face
G C
And in His bosom rest
CHORUS:
G
I am bound for the promised land
C G
I’m bound for the promised land
C G C
Oh who will come and go with me I am bound for the promised land
