620. On Jordan's Stormy Banks

SDA Hymnal

English
Lyrics
Key E
Hymn 620

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 1

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

O’er all those wide extended plain

Shines one eternal day;

There, Christ, the Sun, for ever reigns,

And scatters night away.

Verse 3

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 4

When shall I reach that happy place,

And be forever blest?

When shall I see my Father’s face,

And in His kingdom rest?

Verse 5

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 6

Filled with delight, my raptured soul

Would here no longer stay;

Though Jordan’s waves around me roll,

Fearless I’d launch away.

Verse 7

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.
