Written by M. Durham and Samuel Stennett

(C)On Jordan's stormy (G)banks I stand
And (C)cast a wishful (G)eye
To (C)Canaan's fair and happy land
Where my posse(G)ssions (C)lie
 
Chorus
(C)I am bound for the promised (G)land
I’m (C)bound for the promised (G)land
Oh (C)who will come and go with me
I am bound for the (G)promised (C)land


(C)O'er all those wide (G)extended plains
Shines (C)one eternal (G)day
There (C)God the Son forever reigns
And scatters (G)night (C)away
  
(C)No chilling winds or (G)poisonous breath 
Can (C)reach that healthful (G)shore
(C)Sickness and sorrow pain and death
Are felt and (G)feared no (C)more

(C)When shall I reach that (G)happy place
And (C)be forever (G)blessed 
When (C)shall I see my Father's face
And in His (G)bosom (C)rest
