Every now and then
I'm gonna make you cry
You won't remember when
I won't remember why
Every peace I find
Seems to rise to say
Live for every light
Live for every day

I raise my hand, I raise my hand
I raise my hand, I raise my hand
I raise my hand to the Promised Land

Little girl you're all we've got for now
You've gotta find a way to save us now
It's turning dark and soon the chill will come
If you find it in your heart would you find me some?

I raise my hand, I raise my hand
I raise my hand, I raise my hand
I raise my hand to the Promised Land

I'll say goodbye and say farewell, it seems
My work is done - no more chasing dreams
And if you left, leave my heart to spare
We could part but I'd still find you there

I raise my hand, I raise my hand
I raise my hand, I raise my hand
I raise my hand to the Promised Land
I raise my hand to the Promised Land
