|  |  | Deuteronomy 8:7-10 | 
|  | 1. | God has set the land before us, | 
|  |  | And the land we will possess. | 
|  |  | God has finally found a people | 
|  |  | Tired of all the wilderness. | 
|  |  | Down with every weight and sin; | 
|  |  | Let's go up and enter in. | 
|  |  | Hallelujah, Hallelujah, | 
|  |  | Hallelujah, Amen. | 
|  | 2. | God has cleared the way before us | 
|  |  | Through the victory of His Son; | 
|  |  | Raised the Victor's banner o'er us, | 
|  |  | All the battles He has won. | 
|  |  | All that's left for us to do | 
|  |  | Is by faith to follow through. | 
|  | 3. | It's a land of hills and valleys, | 
|  |  | Brooks and water flowing free; | 
|  |  | Fountains rich with living water, | 
|  |  | Streams that flow abundantly. | 
|  |  | Brothers, joyfully we stand | 
|  |  | In His promise, Christ the land. | 
|  | 4. | God has made the fruit to grow here, | 
|  |  | Filled the land with produce sweet: | 
|  |  | Olive oil and pomegranates, | 
|  |  | Fig trees, honey, vines and wheat. | 
|  |  | We need nothing else besides, | 
|  |  | All we need the land provides. | 
|  | 5. | We have eaten unto fullness, | 
|  |  | And with joy we bless the Lord, | 
|  |  | For the good land He has given; | 
|  |  | Faithful to His promised Word. | 
|  |  | Here we find there is not lack- | 
|  |  | Never, never we'll go back! | 
|  | 6. | All we need to do is labor, | 
|  |  | Working on the land each day; | 
|  |  | Not expecting 'manna' blessing, | 
|  |  | Working in a normal way. | 
|  |  | God and man cooperating | 
|  |  | While for harvest we are waiting. | 
|  | 7. | Labor thus will bring the increase | 
|  |  | Of the land with all its worth, | 
|  |  | And the Lord will have the harvest, | 
|  |  | When He comes to reap the earth. | 
|  |  | To provide the Lord the way, | 
|  |  | We must labor day by day. |
