LyicsOn Jordan's stormy banks I stand,
And cast a wishful eye
To Canaan's fair and happy land,
Where my possessions lie.
O the transporting, rapt'rous scene
That rises to my sight!
Sweet fields array'd in living green,
And rivers of delight.
There gen'rous fruits, that never fail,
on trees immortal grow;
There rocks, and hills, and brooks, and vales,
With milk and honey flow.
All o'er these wide extended plains
Shines on eternal day;
There God, the Sun, forever reigns,
And scatters night away.
