I have left the land of bondage far behind,
To no sinful thing nor pleasure do I cling;
All I need to satisfy me I can find,
For I'm dwelling in the presence of the King.
Praise the Lord, praise the Lord, is the joyous, joyous song
That the angels and the ransomed ever sing.
And I can sing it too, with my palace still in view.
For I'm dwelling in the presence of the King.
I am living in a country bright and fair,
Where the joyous shouts of hallelujah ring:
I have found a rest from sin and every care.
For I'm dwelling in the presence of the King.
Praise the Lord, praise the Lord, is the joyous, joyous song
That the angels and the ransomed ever sing.
And I can sing it too, with my palace still in view.
For I'm dwelling in the presence of the King.
In this happy land the skies are always clear,
Flowers ever blooming in this fadeless spring;
And the ripened fruit of Beuiah land is here,
For I'm dwelling in the presence of the King.
Praise the Lord, praise the Lord, is the joyous, joyous song
That the angels and the ransomed ever sing.
And I can sing it too, with my palace still in view.
For I'm dwelling in the presence of the King.
Oh, the joy I find continues in this place,
As I walk with Jesus, to his hand I cling;
I can hear his voice and see his smiling face,
For I'm dwelling in the presence of the King.
Praise the Lord, praise the Lord, is the joyous, joyous song
That the angels and the ransomed ever sing.
And I can sing it too, with my palace still in view.
For I'm dwelling in the presence of the King.
