Promised Land - John Lucas

Love will bring you to your knees

To sow the seeds of grace

Your heart I’ve made of earth and sea

And your eyes are time and space

Like a carpenter I carved your hands

From driftwood from the deep

And I placed my veins inside your dreams

To woo you while you sleep

And in your heart I’ve placed a journey

And like a garden it will grow

And when you taste the fruits of bravery

I will part the seas below

I composed your bones from symphonies

And I danced to form your name

From the womb you lapt in innocence

And your innocenc remains

For I’ve ransomed you upon my blood

From the wilderness of pain

With fire by night I’ll lead you home

And you’ll know you’re mine again

And in your heart I’ve placed a journey

And like a garden it will grow

And when you taste the fruits of bravery

I will part the seas below

Your heart is my promised land
