New this week on KJIL, it's Josiah Queen's "My Promised Land!"
LYRICS:
You had me standing on a mountain Walking 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 chasing 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 going there with You It's You there, rain or shining You're the sun on my horizon You are my everything My Promised Land is You
You, ooh-ooh You, 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 chasing 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 going there with You It's You there, rain or shining You're the sun on my horizon You are my everything My Promised Land is You
You, ooh-ooh You, 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 going there with You It's You there, rain or shining You're the sun on my horizon You are my everything My Promised Land is 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 going there with You It's You there, rain or shining You're the sun on my horizon You are my everything My Promised Land is You
You are my everything My Promised Land is You
