I’m bound fair Canaan’s land to see,
I am bound for the land of Canaan.
O Canaan, sweet Canaan,
I’m bound for the land of Canaan;
Sweet Canaan ’tis my happy home,
I’m bound for the land of Canaan.
I’ll join with those who’re gone before, I am etc.
Where sin and sorrow are no more, I am etc.
Chorus
If you get there before I do, I am etc.
