I AM BOUND FOR CANAAN

1.        Storms do not alarm me,

           They sometime must cease,

           Trails cannot harm me,

           For I have blessed peace;

           All I’ve  left behind me,

           I long for no more,

           Better things shall find me

           On Canaan’s shore.

                         Let those who will stay in Egypt land,

                         I am bound for Canaan,

                         Where milk and honey flowing,

                         Shall ev’ry need supply;

                         All battles fought and

                         The vict’ry won,

                          Peace and joy my portion,

                          My soul shall rest,

                          On its shore by and by.

2.        Troubles do not fret me,

           They cannot abide,

           Tho’ they may beset me,

           In Jesus, I will hide;

           All the world’s commotion

           About me may roar,

           There’s no stormy ocean

           On Canaan’s shore.

3.        I in grace abiding,

           Am trying to stay,

           In the shadow hiding

           Of Canaan’s perfect day;

           All I trust may fail me,

           Twill matter  no more,

           Nothing can assail me

           On Canaan’s shore.
