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, doubts and fears subside

Oh yes, I can hear the angels singing

Well, well, I can see them around the throne

Well, I can hear, I hear the saints, child, oh, singing

Hallelujah, Hallelujah now, now 'tis done, yes, it is

Tell me, how far am I from Canaan?

Lord, how far am I from Canaan?

Where well, the angels singing and joy bell ringing

Well, I wanna know how far am I from Canaan

Lord, when I get on home, my Savior I'll join

Well, I'll shout, God knows I'm gonna dwell, child

Where with the angels singing

Well, Lord, I wanna know how far, child, am I from Canaan

Well, up there we'll shout Hallelujah

Said, up there we'll shout Hallelujah

Well, well, well, well

I wanna know how far am I from Canaan
