Jesus Will Lead Me to That Promised Land Songtext
von Sam Cooke

I know Jesus is the one who came to me
When I was almost home, Lord
He brought peace to my dying soul
And old Satan had to go
Then He reached out and took my hand
I didn′t know then
But now I understand, Lord
It was Jesus he gave me medicin
Jesus who will lead me to that promised land

One day when I was walking alone
I heard a voice but then I saw no one
Then I stopped and fell down on my knees
I told the Lord how the world been treating me
After a while I won't have to worry
I know my Lord is going to call for me
Then I′m going to be with Him
In that home, in that promised land


I thank you Jesus
For what you've done for me
You died on way on Cavalry
You saved my soul that day
And I'll always walk that narrow way
You promised me you would always
You promised me you′d hold my hand
You know I′m gone, you know I'm gone
You know I′m gone
One day
You know I'm gone
Maybe motherless
But I′m gone
Maybe fatherless
But I'm gone
Maybe blind
But I′m gone
Maybe cripple
But I'm gone
Be with Him, Lord
In that sweet home
In that promised land
