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. Verse 2 All o’er those wide extended plains, Shines one eternal day; There God the Son forever reigns, And scatters night a-way. I am bound (I am bound) I am bound (I am bound) I am bound for promised land, I am bound (I am bound) I am bound (Iam bound) I am bound for promised land. Verse 3 No chilling winds nor poisonous breath Can reach that healthful shore; Sickness, sorrow, pain and death, Are felt and feared no more. Chorus Verse 4 When shall I reach that happy place, And be forever blessed? When shall I see my Father’s face, And in His bos - om rest? Chorus
