381. LAND OF MILK AND HONEY


THERE is a land of milk and honey
There is a land
Where we won’t need money.
There is a land
Shining with jasper
There we shall see our blessed Saviour.

CHORUS

And that’s the reason
We shout “hallelujah”
Praising the King across the river
That shining river
Where the saints will gather
There we shall see our blessed Messiah

Elijah has come, he has done his work already
As John has said,
The Bride has made ready.
And now we are waiting
For the coming of Jesus.
For that blessed day
When the Lamb shall take us.

Our hopes are bright, our lamps are burning.
And day by day our hearts are yearning.
This is the evening,
He will come in the morning.
Then we shall wait until the morning.
