I'm just a man that was promised some land, but I'm dying
Hoping for more, but I guess what's in store wasn't mine

So Lord, help me to pray
'Cause it seems like today You're not by me
But I know that You are
'Cause You got me this far Your way

Guess that Promised Land
Wasn't in my plan
Oh, and maybe someday
I'll figure out this game You play
But right now I can't understand
Why I never made it
Made it to the Promised Land

I'm just a man and I can't understand, but I'm trying
This plan that's divine is so different than mine I can't find it

So Lord, help me to pray
'Cause it seems like today You're not by me
But I know that You are
'Cause You got me this far Your way

Guess that Promised Land
Oh, wasn't in my plan
Oh, and maybe someday
I'll figure out this game You play
But right now I can't understand
Why I never made it
Made it to the Promised Land

And I know one day there will be no suffering
But right now I can't see because I'm wondering
If you're real and You still have control over my life
Lord, open my eyes so I can finally realize
That what is in store is so much more than that

Promised Land
That wasn't in my plan
Oh, and then on that day
When I finally see Your face
And I'm resting in your amazing grace
You'll say: Son, you made it
You made it to the Promised Land

Well, I'm just a man and I can't understand
But I'm trying
