Walking In That Promised Land

Walking in that promised land

Yes back when I was young,
I was just in it for the fun.
Now I’m not really proud,
Of some things I’ve done.

But so you can understand,
How I know I’ll be walking
In that promised land.

Well it happened a long time ago,
He died on a cross so I’d know.
For this sinner His love did show,
So down those golden streets I’ll go.
Walking in that promised land.

While I was still a sinner He came,
He spoke, called me by my name.
Yes, Jesus gave His all for me,
Just to set this poor sinner free.

Now I’m lead by His Holy hand,
And I’ve done a lot of talking
To one called the Son of man.

When I kneel before His throne,
And all His love for me is shown,
He will call me as His very own.
And we’ll walk in that Promised Land.

Come on friends let go walking,
To the Lord we’ll do some talking.
Reach out and take His hand,
And we’ll walk in that Promised Land.
