On Jordan's Stormy Banks

Verse 1
On Jor­dan’s stor­my banks I stand, (Josh. 3:7-17, Num. 33:51-53)
And cast a wish­ful eye (Num. 27:12-14, Deut. 34:1-4)
To Ca­naan’s fair and hap­py land,
Where my pos­ses­sions lie. (Matt. 6:19-22, Luke 12:33, Luke 18:22, I Pet. 1:4)

Chorus
I am bound for the promised land
I am bound for the promised land
Oh, who will come and go with me?
I am bound for the promised land. (Ex. 12:25, Deut. 1:8, Deut. 6:3, Deut. 9:28, Deut. 19:8, Deut. 27:3, Joshua 23:5, Num. 10:29)

Verse 2
We will rest in the fair and hap­py land, (Rev. 14:13)
Just across on the ev­er­green shore, (Ezek. 47:12, Rev. 22:1-2)
Sing the song of Moses and the Lamb, (Rev. 15:3-4)
And dwell with Je­sus ev­er­more. (John 14:2-3, I Thess. 4:17, Rev. 21:3)

Verse 3
Over all those wide ex­tend­ed plains
Shines one eter­nal day; (Rev. 21:23-25, Rev. 22:5)
There God the Son for­ev­er reigns, (Mic. 4:7, Luke 1:33, Rev. 11:15)
And scat­ters night away. (Rev. 21:23, Isa. 60:19-20)

Verse 4
When shall I reach that hap­py place,
And be for­ev­er blest?
When shall I see my Fa­ther’s face, (Rev. 22:4)
And in His bo­som rest? (John 13:23, John 13:25, John 21:20)

Verse 5
Filled with de­light, my rap­tured soul
Would here no long­er stay; (II Cor. 5:8, Phil. 1:23)
Tho’ Jor­dan’s waves around me roll,
Fearless I’d launch away.
