Promised Land words & music © 2005 by Joe Iacano

Verse 1

Searching for the Promised Land, not a soul who cannot understand
Searching for the Promised Land, looking for a place called home
There?s rough water in Galillee, there must be someone who can calm the sea
Guide us through this raging storm, part the clouds and bring us peace

Bridge

Some call it the Peace of God, some call it Serenity
We seek the truth to make us free, we seek a place called Home

Chorus

Promised Land , oh Promised land--- you won?t find it ?cross the desert sand
Promised Land , oh Promised Land--- its where you already stand, the Promised Land

Verse 2

So much suffering in Babylon, the best laid plans have all gone wrong
Emerging from the desert storm, can war bring peace and freedom be born ?
The power of death in the hands of men, the price is life---it has always been
Like the sacrifice at Calvary, it takes blood to make us free

Bridge

Whose gun bring the Peace of God, Who delivers serenity ?
The only truth that sets us free, is in each and every heart

Chorus 2x


(End segment)

Its not across the Ocean, its not across the sea
Its not up on the mountain, its inside of you and me

Promised Land, Promised Land, Promised Land
