My Promised Land Josiah Queen
“My Promised Land” Lyrics
You had me standing on a mountainWalking through barren landsYou took my hand and You saidYou can have this worldBut I won’t go with YouOh, I won’t go with You
But I ran out of placesAnd feelings I was chasingAll I have is You and You alone
And I said, hold on, wait a minuteI don’t want what You ain’t inAnd I don’t wanna goUnless I’m going there with YouIt’s You there, rain or shiningYou’re the sun on my horizonYou are my everythingMy Promised Land is You
You, ooh-oohYou, ooh-ooh
One thing I ask, and this I’ll seekIs to live and to dwellIn the house of the KingAnd if that means that I leaveAll of my thingsThen I will go with YouOh, I will go with You
But I ran out of placesAnd feelings I was chasingAll I have is You and You alone
And I said, hold on, wait a minuteI don’t want what You ain’t inAnd I don’t wanna goUnless I’m going there with YouIt’s You there, rain or shiningYou’re the sun on my horizonYou are my everythingMy Promised Land is You
You, ooh-oohYou, ooh-ooh
Where could I run, could I go?Your spirit will follow me down to SheolAnd the thing about the KingHe’s always with meSo I can’t run from YouBut I won’t run from You
]And I said, hold on, wait a minuteI don’t want what You ain’t inAnd I don’t wanna goUnless I’m going there with YouIt’s You there, rain or shiningYou’re the sun on my horizonYou are my everythingMy Promised Land is You
And I said, hold on, wait a minuteI don’t want what You ain’t inAnd I don’t wanna goUnless I’m going there with YouIt’s You there, rain or shiningYou’re the sun on my horizonYou are my everythingMy Promised Land is You
You are my everythingMy Promised Land is You
