The Promised Land

The promised land God gave us
Is right here at our feet
So let us build the city
Till heaven is complete
The ground on which we’re standing
Only we can mould
Unique in ev’ry touch we make
Yet blending with the whole

Your life and mine praising God
In perfect harmony
O come dear Father please live with us
Reveal Your majesty

Behold the holy city
The new Jerusalem
Coming down from heaven
God’s dwelling place with men
The bride and groom together
Eternity is sealed
And in the new creation
God’s heart and ours fulfilled

See there is no temple
To go and worship in
The Lamb and the Almighty
Fill every living thing
And in the glory of their light
Flowing from the throne
A stream of living water
God’s holiness our home
