My Promised Land
Josiah Queen
Had me standin' on a mountain
Walkin' through barren lands
You took my hand and You said
You can have this world
But I won't go with you
Oh, I won't go with you
But I ran out of places and feelings I was chasin'
All I have is You and You alone
And I said: Hold on, wait a minute
I don't want what You ain't in and
I don't wanna go unless I'm goin' there with You
It's You there, rain or shinin'
You're the Sun on my horizons
You are my everything
My promised land is You
You, ooh-ooh-ooh
You, ooh-ooh-ooh
One thing I ask and this I'll seek
Is to live and to dwell in the house of the King
And if that means that I leave all of my things
Then, I will go with You
Oh, I will go with You
But I ran out of places and feelings I was chasin'
All I have is You and You alone
And I said: Hold on, wait a minute
I don't want what You ain't in and
I don't wanna go unless I'm goin' there with You
It's You there, rain or shinin'
You're the Sun on my horizons
You are my everything
My promised land is You
You, ooh-ooh-ooh
You, ooh-ooh-ooh
Where could I run, could I go?
Your Spirit will follow me down to Sheol
And the thing about the King, He's always with me
So I can't run from You
But I won't run from You
And I said: Hold on, wait a minute
I don't want what You ain't in and
I don't wanna go unless I'm goin' there with You
It's You there, rain or shinin'
You're the Sun on my horizons
You are my everything
My promised land is You
I said: Hold on, wait a minute
I don't want what You ain't in and
I don't wanna go unless I'm goin' there with You
It's You there, rain or shinin'
You're the Sun on my horizons
You are my everything
My promised land is You
You are my everything
My promised land is You
