The Promised Land (乐土) - The Strawbs[00:00:00]
It was early in the morning[00:00:23]
And our ship was still at sea [00:00:26]
With a lifetime far behind us we were free [00:00:30]
We had strong hearts and a faith[00:00:36]
In our good Lord's guiding hands;[00:00:39]
The mist before us cleared [00:00:42]
And we saw the promised land [00:00:45]
With our brothers and our sisters[00:00:59]
We soon forged into the land [00:01:01]
Building towns and cities[00:01:05]
Far beyond our dreams [00:01:07]
As the tree which reaches to the sky [00:01:11]
The child who learns to stand [00:01:14]
So we had men of vision[00:01:17]
To create the promised land [00:01:19]
But the vision soon became[00:01:33]
One man's view of wealth and fame [00:01:36]
And the gun became[00:01:39]
What wisdom used to be [00:01:40]
So the struggle had begun[00:01:45]
Which has never yet been won [00:01:47]
Hear the people [00:01:50]
Hear them saying "Are we free "[00:01:51]
So God bless you my promised land [00:02:26]
Let nothing you dismay [00:02:29]
For the hand that guides[00:02:32]
Our fortunes has strange ways [00:02:33]
And when the fight is over[00:02:38]
And the judgment is at hand [00:02:40]
Please don't forget our brothers [00:02:44]
Far beyond the promised land[00:02:46]
