Lyrics

Intro: E  B  A  E
Verse 1        E                            B
You gotta be in the world but not of the world
A                                                E
Feed the people with the words of love.
              E                B  
You gotta be the light shining in the darkness
A                                  E
A voice on the mountain top.

Verse 2 (same chords)
I love you Lord for the things you do 
Come and live within me and I’ll praise you.
Take my hand and walk with me
To the gates of the promised land.

Chorus A                             D
To the gates of the promised land 
               A                             E
Where the Lord and the faithful stand.
          A                              D
To the gates of the promised land 
            A          E          A      A
We’ll be walking hand in hand.

Verse 3 (same chords)
You gotta love one another as you love yourself
And be a neighbor to the ones in need
You gotta have charity, it’s the love of Christ
And the only thing that’ll conquer greed.

Verse 4 (same chords)
Trust in the Lord with all your heart and soul
'Cause with the Lord all things are possible.
Have faith and hope in the promises of God
And He’ll lead you to the promised land.

Chorus (same chords)
To the gates of the promised land 
Where the Lord and the faithful stand.
To the gates of the promised land 
We’ll be walking hand in hand.

Chorus (same chords)
To the gates of the promised land 
Where the Lord and the faithful stand.
To the gates of the promised land 
We’ll be walking hand in hand.
We’ll be walking hand in hand.
We’ll be walking hand in hand.
