The Promised Land
Never I thought I could be
still I cannot believe
I am the chosen one
chosen by our Lord
He heard the cry of his children
He's seen what's been done to them
surely He visited
the Kingdom on the Nile
there on the holy ground
I've seen the flame of fire
Like noone seen before
on the Mountain of God
I was sent to you
to break the chains of slavery
lead you to the land
where milk and honey flow
the Promised land
slaves no more
the Promised land
Eloquence isn't my forte
I'm also lacking in speech
but I'm not alone here
I've got all I need
Aaron, the Levite is with me
knowing he can speak well
He will be my spokesman
and I will lay the signs
Hear the sons of Israel
what I've got to say to you
The Lord saw your misery
heard the groaning and cry
I was sent to you
to break the chains of slavery
Lead you to the land
where milk and honey flow
The Promised land
slaves no more
The Promised land
The Promised land
The Promised land
still I cannot believe
I am the chosen one
chosen by our Lord
He heard the cry of his children
He's seen what's been done to them
surely He visited
the Kingdom on the Nile
there on the holy ground
I've seen the flame of fire
Like noone seen before
on the Mountain of God
I was sent to you
to break the chains of slavery
lead you to the land
where milk and honey flow
the Promised land
slaves no more
the Promised land
Eloquence isn't my forte
I'm also lacking in speech
but I'm not alone here
I've got all I need
Aaron, the Levite is with me
knowing he can speak well
He will be my spokesman
and I will lay the signs
Hear the sons of Israel
what I've got to say to you
The Lord saw your misery
heard the groaning and cry
I was sent to you
to break the chains of slavery
Lead you to the land
where milk and honey flow
The Promised land
slaves no more
The Promised land
The Promised land
The Promised land
