How Far Am I From Canaan?
I am standing on the Jordan
Gazing 'cross the stormy tide
There I'll rest my every burden
'Til all doubts and fears, Lord, subside
Oh yes, I can hear the angels singing
I can see, Lord, them around the throne
Well, I can hear, I hear the saints child, oh, singing, hmm
Hallelujah, hallelujah now, now 'tis done, oh yes
Tell me, how far (how far) am I (am I) from Canaan?
Lord, how far (how far) am I (am I) from Canaan?
Well, where the angels singing and joy bell ringing in glory (glory)
Lord, how far (how far) am I (am I) from Canaan?
Lord, over there (over there) we shout (we shout) troubles over (over)
Lord, over there (over there) we shout (we shout) troubles over (over)
Well, where the angels singing and joy bell ringing in glory
Lord, how far (how far) am I (am I) from Canaan?
Lord, up there (up there) I'll meet (I'll meet) my mother
Lord, up there (up there) I'll meet (I'll meet) my mother
Well, where the angels singing and joy bell ringing in glory
Lord, how far (how far) am I (am I) from Canaan?
Lord, when I (when I, yes, when I) get on home (when I, I get home)
My Savior (my Sa-Savior, I'll see), I'll join (I'll join, join with You)
Well, I'll shout, God knows I'm gonna dwell, child
Hey, oh, oh, oh (where the angels singing and joy bell ringing in glory)
Lord, I wanna know how far (how far) am I (am I) from Canaan?
Gazing 'cross the stormy tide
There I'll rest my every burden
'Til all doubts and fears, Lord, subside
Oh yes, I can hear the angels singing
I can see, Lord, them around the throne
Well, I can hear, I hear the saints child, oh, singing, hmm
Hallelujah, hallelujah now, now 'tis done, oh yes
Tell me, how far (how far) am I (am I) from Canaan?
Lord, how far (how far) am I (am I) from Canaan?
Well, where the angels singing and joy bell ringing in glory (glory)
Lord, how far (how far) am I (am I) from Canaan?
Lord, over there (over there) we shout (we shout) troubles over (over)
Lord, over there (over there) we shout (we shout) troubles over (over)
Well, where the angels singing and joy bell ringing in glory
Lord, how far (how far) am I (am I) from Canaan?
Lord, up there (up there) I'll meet (I'll meet) my mother
Lord, up there (up there) I'll meet (I'll meet) my mother
Well, where the angels singing and joy bell ringing in glory
Lord, how far (how far) am I (am I) from Canaan?
Lord, when I (when I, yes, when I) get on home (when I, I get home)
My Savior (my Sa-Savior, I'll see), I'll join (I'll join, join with You)
Well, I'll shout, God knows I'm gonna dwell, child
Hey, oh, oh, oh (where the angels singing and joy bell ringing in glory)
Lord, I wanna know how far (how far) am I (am I) from Canaan?
