I've been livin' on Egypt land
Been there for some time
And then I journey toward Canaan
And I left the past behind
Though I been to the trials of the wilderness
God's grace has kept me strong
I just caught a glimpse of the Promised Land
I think I'm almost home

I see the Promised Land one more mile
I leave my cares behind and rest for a while
The family's gath'rin' in for the victory song
Well, I can see the Promised Land
I'm almost home

I stood on Jordan's bank
And watched the swellin' tide
I've watched my love was crossed
Over to the other side
Well, I had this special feeling
That it won't be long
I just caught a glimpse of the Promised Land
I think I'm almost home

I see the Promised Land one more mile
I leave my cares behind and rest for a while
The family's gath'rin' in for the victory song
Well, I can see the Promised Land
I'm almost home
I see the Promised Land one more mile
I leave my cares behind and rest for a while
The family's gath'rin' in for the victory song
Well, I can see the Promised Land
I'm almost home

Well, I can see the Promised Land
Well, I'm almost home
We're going home
