Promised Land - Intellectual

[Verse 1]

Once I was dead to You and I could not hear

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 Saviour, my Redeemer, You have freed me

Helped me understand

Through Your suffering, I'm forgiven

Pressing onward to the promised land

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

What a Saviour, my Redeemer, You have freed me

Helped me understand

Through Your suffering, I'm forgiven

Pressing onward to the promised land

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

What a Saviour, my Redeemer, You have freed me

Helped me understand

Through Your suffering, I'm forgiven

Pressing onward to the promised land

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

Oh what a Saviour, my Redeemer, You have freed me

Helped me understand

Through Your suffering, I'm forgiven

Pressing onward to the promised land

His name is Jesus, risen Saviour, He's our healer

Death could not withstand

His name is Jesus, sent from Heaven

To take us homeward to the promised land
