Promised Land Lyrics - Peter Green

Written by m.d. green. 

The sun is shining the children smiling 

As they walk along the golden sand 

The chosen people have climbed the steeple 

On their way to the promised land 

Across the river away from sorrow 

And on to freedom where there's peace of mind 

Someone beside them someone to guide them 

On their way to the promised land 

And by the river I'll be with you all the way 

Break: 

And by the river I'll be with you all the way 

There's milk and honey it's always sunny 

The people sing with their head in hand 

And soon their patience will be rewarded 

And they shall walk in the promised land 

And by the river I'll be with you all the way 

The sun is shining the children smiling 

As they walk along the golden sand 

The chosen people have climbed the steeple 

On their way to the promised land 

And by the river I'll be with you all the way 

The sun is shining the children smiling 

As they walk along the golden sand 

The chosen people have climbed the steeple 

On their way to the promised land 

And by the river I'll be with you all the way
