C               G7
On Jordan's stormy banks I stand
    C              G7
And cast a wishful eye
   C
To Canaan's fair and happy land
      C      G7       C
Where my possessions lie

[Chorus]
     C                      G7
I am bound for the promised land
    C                      G7
I’m bound for the promised land
   C
Oh who will come and go with me
     C             G7       C
I am bound for the promised land

[Verse 2]
     C              G7
O'er all those wide extended plains
       C          G7
Shines on eternal day
      C
There God the Son forever reigns
    C        G7     C
And scatters night away

[Chorus]
     C                      G7
I am bound for the promised land
    C                      G7
I’m bound for the promised land
   C
Oh who will come and go with me
     C             G7       C
I am bound for the promised land

[Verse 3]
   C                 G7
No chilling winds or poisonous breath
    C                    G7
Can reach that healthful shore
    C
Sickness and sorrow pain and death
             G7        C
Are felt and feared no more

[Chorus]
     C                      G7
I am bound for the promised land
    C                      G7
I’m bound for the promised land
   C
Oh who will come and go with me
     C             G7       C
I am bound for the promised land

[Verse 4]
     C                  G7
When shall I reach that happy place
    C          G7
And be forever blessed
     C
When shall I see my Father's face
           G7    C
And in His bosom rest

[Chorus]
     C                      G7
I am bound for the promised land
    C                      G7
I’m bound for the promised land
   C
Oh who will come and go with me
     C             G7       C
I am bound for the promised land
