(Joshua 24)
When the Lord above -- planned some land for this
He walked us through the water -- around the wilderness
With a little piece -- of some ground for me
We'll take the land together –- we'll take the Promised Land
'Cause God's got a land for you -- ahhh
A land that He promised you
Yes, today -- choose who you plan to serve
The land is full of idols here -- they're gonna make you swerve
So get rid of -- them can't you see they're vile
We'll take 'em all together -- drop 'em on a pile, 'cause
God's got a land for you -- God's got a land for you
A land that He promised you -- it's a land He promised you and
Holy land -- goin' to a whole new land
Holy land -- I'll take you to a place where you can be
Holy land -- after Deuteronomy, because
God's gonna give you the best of -- the best of the land
See, it was waiting -- and we were wasting time
Till we -- walked across the Jordan -- and fought the Canaanties
And there's still more -- and you must clean it out
We don't wanna deal with compromises
Don't wanna give an inch of ground, 'cause
God's got a land for you -- God's got a land for you
A land that He promised you – ah, it's a land He promised you-- ohhh
Holy land -- goin' to a holy land
Holy land -- I'll take you to the Promised Land
Holy land -- pledge allegiance to the Lord 'cause
God's gonna give you the best of -- the best of the land
LEAD Yeah-eah
Awwwww
Everyone, won't you listen, listen, listen
Holy land -- goin' to a whole new land
Holy land -- I'll take you to a place for you and me
Holy land – it's a place you'll wanna be, because
I-I-I oh-oh-oh know, know – know, know, know
Holy land -- goin' to a holy land
Holy land -- I'll take you to the Promised Land
Holy land – maybe we can't escape the world, but
God's gonna give you the best of, the best of the land
Ah-ah -- the best of the la-a-a-a-a-a-a-a-and
