on jordans stormy banks i stand and cast a wishful eye to canaans fair and happy land where my possessions lie oh the transporting raptrous scene that rises to my sight sweet fields arrayed in living green and rivers of delight oer all those wide extended plains shines one eternal day there god the son forever reigns and scatters night away oh the transporting raptrous scene that rises to my sight sweet fields arrayed in living green and rivers of delight no chilling winds or poisnous breath can reach that healthful shore sickness and sorrow pain and death are felt and feared no more oh the transporting raptrous scene that rises to my sight sweet fields arrayed in living green and rivers of delight
