1 On Jordan's stormy banks I stand,
and cast a wishful eye
to Canaan's fair and happy land,
Where my possessions lie.

Refrain:
I am bound for the promised land,
I am bound for the promised land;
O who will come and go with me?
I am bound for the promised land.

2 All o'er those wide extended plains,
Shines one eternal day;
there God the Son forever reigns
and scatters night away. [Refrain]

3 No chilling winds nor pois'nous breath
can reach that healthful shore;
sickness and sorrow, pain and death,
are felt and feared no more. [Refrain]

4. When shall I reach that happy place,
and be forever blessed?
When shall I see my Father's face,
and in His bosom rest? [Refrain]
