Lyics

Jesus, my all, to heaven has gone,

I am bound for the land of Canaan;

He whom I fix my hopes upon,

I am bound for the land of Canaan.



CHORUS

Oh Canaan, bright Canaan,

I am bound for the land of Canaan;

Oh Canaan is my happy home,

I am bound for the land of Canaan.



His path I see, and I'll pursue,

I am bound for the land of Canaan;

The narrow way till him I view,

I am bound for the land of Canaan.
