[Verse 1]
D G
On Jordan's stormy banks I stand,
C F
And cast a wishful eye
D7 G
To Canaan's fair and happy land,
C F
Where my possessions lie.
[Chorus]
D G
I am bound for the promised land,
C
I am bound for the promised land,
D G
Oh who will come and go with me?
C F
I am bound for the promised land.
[Verse 2]
D7 G
O'er all those wide extended plains
C F
Shines one eternal day;
D G
There God the Son forever reigns,
C F
And scatters night a-way.
[Chorus]
D7 G
I am bound for the promised land,
C D
I am bound for the promised land,
D7 G
Oh who will come and go with me?
C F
I am bound for the promised land.

[Verse 3]
D G
No chilling wind, no poison spread,
C F
Can reach that healthful shore;
D G
Sickness and sorrow, pain and death,
C F
Are felt and feared no more.
[Chorus]
D7 G
I am bound for the promised land,
C D
I am bound for the promised land,
D7 G
Oh who will come and go with me?
C F
I am bound for the promised land.
[Verse 4]
D G
When I shall reach that heavenly place,
C
And be forever blessed,
D
For I shall see my Father's face,
C
And in His bosom rest.
