You don't need to be a believer to appreciate beautiful music. (I'm not trying to start a flame war.)

[@Furahaelvine]

I searched for this for the last days, FINALLY 🎉🎉

[@Beegeezy144]

On Jordan's stormy banks I stand And cast a wishful eye To Canaan's fair and happy land Where my possessions lie I am bound for the promised land I am bound for the promised land Oh, who will come and go with me? I am bound for the promised land Oh, the transporting, rapturous scene That rises to my sight Sweet fields arrayed in living green And rivers of delight I am bound for the promised land I am bound for the promised land Oh, who will come and go with me? I am bound for the promised land There generous fruits that never fail On trees immortal grow There rocks and hills, and brooks and vales With milk and honey flow I am bound for the promised land I am bound for the promised land Oh, who will come and go with me? I am bound for the promised land O'er all those wide extended plains Shines one eternal day There God the Son forever reigns And scatters night away I am bound for the promised land I am bound for the promised land Oh, who will come and go with me? I am bound for the promised land No chilling winds or poisonous breath Can reach that healthful shore Sickness and sorrow, pain and death Are felt and feared no more I am bound for the promised land I am bound for the promised land Oh, who will come and go with me? I am bound for the promised land When I shall reach that happy place I'll be forever blest For I shall see my Father's face And in His bosom rest

Beautiful, lively, uplifting, inspiring! Thank You to the choir, orchestra, Director and someone we frequently take for granted-the crew that produces those beautiful scenes from God's Creation! Wow, thank you all, I love it! Stay safe and look out for each other!

[@MartaToroM]

Majestic!!!! Loving this from Chile, a Promised Land! Thanks for lifting my spirit to heights with such powerful performance!! First time I hear this one, and is already a favorite!!

[@wrxstigoabs]

I saw this performed live at a Music and the Spoken Word some years ago - it was stunning. The power of the MoTab in full flight was spine tingling stuff!

[@lovechocolateish]

Reminds me of “Deliver Us” from The Prince of Egypt.

[@RebekahBrooks-fk8se]

This is a beautiful piece of music. The video makes me want to go exploring up in the Rocky Mountains like Captain Bonneville.

[@carlosfilipe411]

I love this hymn. Can you please do more hymns?

[@turayishimyeleandre5481]

nice song

[@KeithDoverKD]

I like this performance, but I recently sang this anthem, and I can't help but notice that the tempo is much much higher than the composer (who is the conductor) specifies in the score.

[@hjr2450]

It's like Copland wrote it!

[@kyrstenvargas2773]

pero que bella¡ me encanta

[@maxiolivares5162]

[@ranelmarinduque794]

I literally imagine a PIRATE movie.

[@_mellosine]

They must be referring to the Kingdom of Lothric.

[@acontecerdigital9411]

I’m here for religolous

[@BRRTa10]

gives me a weird skyrim feel

[@ArtilleryJoe]

Hahaha. Like an old crusade! Let us go crusade!

[@bathysphere1070]

I don't know why the Israel area is considered the "Promised Land" it has been riddled with violence, oppression, suffering, and pain since before recorded history.

[@spiritualbeetle120]

They are not referring to Israel as the Promised Land. Not anymore at least. If you were a Christian you would understand that

[@vanessaloy1049]

Because the Bible prophesied that; Jerusalem would be downtrodden of the Gentiles until the times of the Gentiles be fulfilled.

[@omiolo]

I think if they would have sung this song while crossing the plains, they would have gotten their quicker.

[@HotBabe-wn1ok]

They sing way to fast ahah

[@BRRTa10]
