hallowed father take my hand
lead me home to the promised land
i've been sinful, cut me down
break my chains, hear me now
i've been searching in a murky bar
i'm seeking jordan in an empty glass
please send my love to the ones i hurt
he will return to fulfil his work
oh, for her i would cleanse my soul
i'd walk the path that i ought to know
for a moment in the promised land
if for a moment she would take my hand
across the water in kingdom come
he says "i gave you my only son"
listen softly you'll hear him cry
i try to speak but my throat runs dry
holy father, i've lost my way
i need redemption for the pearly gates
i don't want to meet with jezebel
but i'm deserving of the flames of hell
oh, for her, i would cleanse my soul
i'd walk the path that i ought to know
for a moment in the promised land
if for a moment she would take my hand
