Promised Land
Lou Fellingham Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I was blind to the truth and was nowhere near
But then You gave me life and You gripped my soul
With a love so pure and You won't let go
What a Savior, my redeemer, You have freed me
Helped me understand
Through Your suffering, I'm forgiven
Sent from His Father above, Jesus walked this earth
Knew His destiny as He read the word
Not shrinking back from the task He pursued His goal
Came to ransom lives and to make them whole
Now with the Spirit's help I can journey on
Knowing peace with God, my conviction's strong
Because of Jesus' blood I am now secure
And because He lives my hope is sure
You've bought me with a price, a perfect sacrifice
Now all I have I give to You
My life no longer mine, to live or die is Christ
Bound now for Heaven
His name is Jesus, risen Savior, He's our healer
Death could not withstand
His name is Jesus, sent from Heaven
To take us homeward to The Promised Land
The lyrics to Lou Fellingham's song "Promised Land" describe a journey of faith that begins with being lost and having no connection to God, before being given new life and embraced by His pure love. The singer acknowledges Jesus as her redeemer, the one who has set her free and helped her to understand her purpose. The second verse then shifts the focus to Jesus himself, describing him as a figure who knew his destiny and was committed to his mission on earth. Through his sacrifice, the singer is forgiven and able to journey towards the promised land with peace and conviction. The final verse reinforces the idea of Jesus as a savior who has conquered death and will guide those who follow him to their eternal home.
Overall, the song is an uplifting message of hope and faith that emphasizes the power of belief and the transformative nature of God's love. The lyrics highlight the importance of following Jesus as a path to salvation and offer reassurance that no matter what challenges we face in life, we can trust in His guidance to reach our ultimate goal.
