drew holcomb & the neighbors - the promised land lyrics

Loading...

[verse 1]
william anderson was blind as an alley cat
old man on the streets edinburgh
he was my friend for a day
taught me many things
i watched him walk the streets in faithfulness

[verse 2]
my granny sang soft and sweet
old gospel melodies
still driving at the age of ninety-three
she almost got to a hundred
before she took her last
and everyone who knew her called her blessed

[chorus]
i remember you my friend
how you came and took my hand
may seem like it was years ago
you walked me through the promised land

[verse 3]
marilyn was kind you see
that girl was always so good to me
sometimes i thought i was in love
she taught me to laugh out loud
and to cry more often
she was my noonday joy

[chorus]
and i remember you my friend
how you came and took my hand
may seem like it was years ago
you walked me through the promised land

[verse 4]
dallas was a friend of mine
lived down near the oxford line
used to have him a girl as pretty as the spring
tragedy struck one day
and now she’s gone away
dallas wept like a thunderstorm

[chorus]
i remember you my friend
how you came and took my hand
may seem like it was years ago
you walked me through
you walked me through the promised land
