How Far Am I From Canaan? |
| I am standing on the Jordan |
| Gazing 'cross the swelling tide |
| There I’ll rest my heavy burden |
| 'Till all doubts and fears Lord subside |
| I can hear the angels singing |
| I can see, Lord, them 'round the throne |
| Well I can hear, I hear the saints, child, oh singing |
| Hallelujah, Hallelujah now, now 'tis done, oh yes |
| Tell me… |
| How far am I from Canaan? |
| 2x |
| With the angels singing and the joybell ringing |
| And glory, Lord, How far am I from Canaan? |
| Lord, over there we’ll shout, «Troubles over!"2x |
| With the angels singing and the joybell ringing |
| And glory, Lord, How far am I from Canaan? |
| Lord, up there I’ll need my mother |
| Lord, when I get on home, my savior I’ll join |
| Well, I’ll shout God knows I’m going to dwell |
