b,4/4

1. On Jordan's storm-y banks I stand, and cast a wish-ful eye
To Ca-naan's fair and hap-py land, where my pos-ses-sions lie.

Refrain:
I am bound for the promised land...(2)
O who will come and go with me? I am bound for the promised land.

2. All o'er wide ex-ten-ded plains shines one e-ter-nal day;
There God, the Son, for-ev-er reigns, And scat-ters night a-way.

3. No chilling winds, nor pois-'nous breath, Can reach that health-ful shore;
Sick-ness and sor-row, pain and death, Are felt and feared no more.

4. When shall I reach that hap-py place, And be for-ev-er blest?
When shall I see my Father's face, And in His bos-om rest?
