Verse 1
Ab 
I have letters from my father
in my hand, in my hand,
written to my elder brother.
They are grand, they are grand,
they are red as o 'er the sea,
and were forward unto me.
I'm as happy as I can be
in this land, in this land.
I'm as happy as I can be in this land.
Father told me in his letters that our grand,
that our grand,
I could make myself much better
in this land, in this land.
Then I cried, what shall I do?
For I had not read them through.
And they made me all anew
in this land, in this land.
And they made me all anew in this land.
I am sanctified and happy
in my heart, in my heart.
For the blood of Jesus
cleanses every part, every part.
I have lost my carnal mind,
doubts and fears I've left behind.
And a comforter I find in my heart,
in my heart.
And a conqueror I find in my heart.
I am now a new creation
in this land, in this land.
They don't know my situation.
It is grand, it is grand,
for this world as dark as night.
But my father's face is bright.
And I'm walking in the light.
Through this land, through this land.
And I'm walking in the light
through this land.
I am not afraid of dying
in this land, in this land.
But I often feel like flying,
oh, how grand, oh, how grand.
I will sing and shout and pray,
and my master's voice obey.
And my soul can hardly stay
Ab 
in this land, in this land.
And my soul can hardly stay
Ab 
in this land.
