I Am Bound For The Promised Land

On Jordan's stormy banks I stand
 And cast a wishful eye
 To Canaan's fair and happy land
 Where my [unverified] lie
 I'm bound for the promised land
 I'm bound for the promised land
 Oh, who will come and go with me?
 I'm bound for the promised land
 All those wide, extended plains
 Shines one eternal day
 There God's [unverified] son forever reigns
 And scatters night away
 I'm bound for the promised land
 I'm bound for the promised land
 Oh, who will come and go with me?
 I'm bound for the promised land
 No chilling winds, no poison strand
 Can reach that healthful shore
 Sickness and sorrow, pain and death
 Are felt and feared no more
 I'm bound for the promised land
 I'm bound for the promised land
 Oh, who will come and go with me?
 I'm bound for the promised land
 When shall I reach that heavenly place
 And be forever blessed?
 When shall I see my Father's face
 And in His bosom rest?
 I'm bound for the promised land
 I'm bound for the promised land
 Oh, who will come and go with me?
 I'm bound for the promised land
 Filled with delight, my rested soul
 Would ever longer stay
 Though Jordan's winds around me roar
 There bliss alone shall weigh
