ROCKIN' ROLLIN' in the PROMISED LAND

(Written by Rob Bolton, 1996)

1.) Well here we come, and here we come, and here we go! / Rockin' rollin' in the promised land. / Feet on the rock and name on the roll, / Rockin' rollin' in the promised land. / Sounding out the message of the one who redeemed us, yeah, / Yeah, yeah, yeah, oh yeah, / Joyful in glory, he takes plessure in his children dancing, / We'll never stop dancing, and proclaiming:

CHORUS.) Praise the Lord on the high-sounding cymbals, and the blast of the trumpets, and the new guitars. / Praise the Lord in his sanctuary, for his excellent greatness and his mighty power. / Lift up our voices and sing, / We are joyful in our king, / bringing truth and love and justice, come on, / let freedom ring!

2.) Joshua's trumpet meant Jericho's fall, we were, / Rockin' rollin' in the promised land, / Caleb's valiance brought down giants tall, and we were, / rockin' rollin'in the promised land, / Sounding high praise with a two-edged sword in our hands, yeah, / yeah, yeah, yeah, oh yeah, / We're excecuting justice, we're cleaning up, we're taking our stand, / it's here we'll take our stand, / This is our land.

CHORUS.) As above.

(Instrumental interlude, guitar solo.)

3.) Well here we come, and here we come, and here we go! / Rockin' rollin' in the promised land. / Join us in singing now, let's steal the show. / Rockin' rollin' in the promised land. / Sounding out the message of the one who redeemed us, yeah / yeah, yeah, yeah, oh yeah, / He dies on that cross, and he paid for all of our sins, / And then he arose again, / Alive again!

CHORUS.) (First two lines as above) (Variation: Now it's all turned out all right, / We are summertime stars tonight, / Before the throne of glory and his everlasting light.)

(Instrumental close.)
