How long? Not long before I reach the promised land, How long? Not long before I make it to the Kingdom. Just a few more weary days before I reach the promised land. There to sing His endless praise, I'm on my way to the Kingdom. Trials may seem hard sometimes before I reach the promised land. But there eternally sublime, Yes, when I make it to the Kingdom.
