Jesus Will Lead Me to That Promised Land Lyrics

I know Jesus is the one who came to me
when I was almost home
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
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 did on way on Cavalry
you saved my soul that day
and I'll always walk that narrow way
you promised me you would always
yor promised me you'd hold my hand
you know I'm gone, you know I'm gone
maybe blind
but I'm gone
maybe cripple
but I'm gone
maybe lame
but I'm gone
maybe motherless
but I'm gone
maybe fatherless
I'm going to be with him
in that sweet home
in that promised land
