James Relly, 1776

Description

Bit weird. The name is after a hotel in Penang, Malaysia.


Text

Canaan promised is before;
Come, let us forward go,
Not the ocean nor its roar,
Nor the Egyptian foe
May obstruct when God commands,
His pow'r on our behalf he shows
Move me forward to the land
Where milk and honey flows.

Seas divide before our face,
And stand upon an heap;
Mighty waters by his grace,
Shrink from the fearful deep;
On we march at his command,
Nor dread the power of our foes:
Move we forward to the land
Where milk and honey flows.
