On the Banks of the Promised Land
I have built my life on the Solid Rock
Far away from the sinking sand
And I cast my eyes to the home that waits
On the banks of the Promised Land
There's a song of praise that is lifted there
By the saints and the angel band
(Welcome, angel band)
Oh, I long to go and to join the choir
On the banks of the Promised Land
Hallelujah, what a morning
When I reach for that nail-scarred hand
And I'm led from grace to glory
On the banks of the Promised Land
Every grief and pain that has bound me here
Jesus knows and Hе understands
They'll be washеd away as I cross that stream
To the banks of the Promised Land
Hallelujah, what a morning
When I reach for that nail-scarred hand
And I'm led from grace to glory
On the banks of the Promised Land
Then I'll see the face of my Savior dear
Beckoned close by His sweet command
All my burdens gone, I will rest at last
On the banks of the Promised Land
Oh, hallelujah, what a morning
When I reach for that nail-scarred hand
And I'm led from grace to glory
On the banks of the Promised Land
And I'm led from grace to glory
On the banks of the Promised Land
On the banks of the Promised Land
Oh, who will come and go with me?
Oh, I am bound for the Promised Land
