Have I not commanded you? Be strong and of good courage; do not be afraid, nor be dismayed, for the Lord your God is with you wherever you go. Joshua 1:9
You are the path that leads me home
through many sorrows and many tears
even after ten thousand years
i will rejoice in You alone
i am heading to the promised land
that is where i will make my stand
i will march around those walls
and with a shout they will fall
in times of trouble
when meek and humble
i seek Your counsel
so i do not stumble
after all my many blunders
i am now so filled with wonder
because now i can finally see
who i am called to be
there is my sweet promised land
that is where i make my stand
because i will not back down
i will receive a crown
i will walk 7 times around
then my horns will blow with sound
the walls that stand will all fall down
my enemies will fall. i will gain my crown
for my God reigns
at the mention of Your name
i see my enemies writhe in pain
age to age the outcome remains the same
always the same
through the mire and fire
through the flood of blood
braced for the coming horde
i will stand for You oh Lord
i am in my promised land
now where i have made my stand
i am delivered and i am free
i have a heavenly destiny
hallelujah to God almighty
hallelujah. hallelujah
to God almighty
hallelujah to God almighty
