On Jordan's Stormy Banks

Verse 1
On Jordan's stormy banks I stand
And cast a wishful eye
To Canaan's fair and happy land
Where my possessions lie

Chorus
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

Verse 2
All o'er those wide extended plains
Shines one eternal day
There God the Son forever reigns
And scatters night away

Verse 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

Verse 4
When shall I reach
That happy place
And be forever blest
When shall I see
My Father's face
And in His bosom rest
