I Can See the Promised Land

I Can See The Promised Land

Written by: James Payne & Adrian Payne

There's been a lot of mountains that I've had to climb

There have been some rivers, some deep and oh so wide

Dark valleys try to pull me back to the life I left behind

When I steal away to my secret place of prayer, I close my eyes

I can hear the angels singing

I can see old Jordan's tide

Just across the river

Pearly gates are open wide

I can see my Savior reaching

With outstretched nail-scarred hands

Though I'm walking through the valley

I can see the promised land

Storm clouds sometimes gather, try to blind my eyes

To the joy I know is waiting just beyond the Eastern sky

And this world is cruel and dark with every passing day

I can still see the lights of home when I steal away and pray

I can hear the angels singing

I can see old Jordan's tide

Just across the river

Pearly gates are open wide

I can see my Savior reaching

With outstretched nail-scarred hands

Though I'm walking through the valley

I can see the promised land

I can hear the angels singing

I can see old Jordan's tide

Just across the river

Pearly gates are open wide

I can see my Savior reaching

With outstretched nail-scarred hands

Though I'm walking through the valley

I can see the promised land

Though I'm walking through the valley

I can see the promised land
