Dream About the Promised Land

D-ream about the promised land, 
A-nother earth in the sky; 
N-ew heaven of glory
I-s where the tears are dry.
E-ternal bliss up above is what God's great reward; 
L-ife everlasting is the gift to those who endure so hard.

D-ay five in warm July, just close both your eyes; 
E-vening silence you choose to think of the priceless prize.

G-ive your mind a moment of peace, 
U-ntil you know the love of the Lord; 
Z-ealously learn to decide, 
M-aking the right choice of His word.
A-llow your hope to keep alive, let your heart fully understand; 
N-ight here again is coming, dream about the promised land.
