On Jordan’s stormy banks I stand. And cast a wishful eye. To Canaan’s fair and happy land. Where my possessions lie. All o’er those wide extended plains. Shines one eternal day. There God the Son forever reigns. And scatters night away.. I am bound I am bound I am bound for the Promise Land. I am bound I am bound I am bound for the Promise Land. No chilling wind nor poisonous breath. Can reach that healthful shore. Where sickness sorrow pain and death. Are felt and feared no more. I am bound I am bound I am bound for the Promise Land. I am bound I am bound I am bound for the Promise Land. When shall I see that happy place. And be forever blessed. When shall I see my Father’s face. And in His bosom rest. I am bound I am bound I am bound for the Promise Land. I am bound I am bound I am bound for the Promise Land
