Lyics

Farewell!  Farewell!  Farewell, my friends, I must be gone;

I have no home nor stay with you;

I'll take my staff and travel on,

Till I a better world can view.

I'll march to Canaan's land,

I'll land on Cannan's shore,

Where pleasures never end,

And troubles come no more.

Farewell!  Farewell!  Farewell, my loving friends, farewell!



Farewell, my friends, time rolls along,

Nor waits for mortal cares or bliss;

I'll leave you here, and travel on

Till I arrive where Jesus is.

I'll march to Canaan's land,

I'll land on Cannan's shore,

Where pleasures never end,

And troubles come no more.

Farewell!  Farewell!  Farewell, my loving friends, farewell!



Farewell, dear brethren in the Lord,

To you I'm bound with cords of love;

But we believe his gracious word,

That we ere long shall meet above.

I'll march to Canaan's land,

I'll land on Cannan's shore,

Where pleasures never end,

And troubles come no more.

Farewell!  Farewell!  Farewell, my loving friends, farewell!



Farewell, you blooming sons of God,

Sore conflicts yet remain for you;

But dauntless keep the heavenly road,

Till Canaan's happy land you view.

I'll march to Canaan's land,

I'll land on Cannan's shore,

Where pleasures never end,

And troubles come no more.

Farewell!  Farewell!  Farewell, my loving friends, farewell!
