I am standing on the Jordan
Gazing 'cross Thy stormy tide
And there I'll rest my every burden
'Til all doubts and fears subside
Oh, yes, I can hear the angels singing
I can see, Lord, them around the throne
Well, I can hear, I hear the saints, child, oh, singing, hmm
Hallelujah, hallelujah now, now 'tis done, oh, yes
Tell me, how far (how far) am I (am I) from Canaan?
Lord, how far (how far) am I (am I) from Canaan?
Lord, where the angels singing and joy bell ringing and glory (glory)
Lord, how far (how far) am I (am I) from Canaan?
Lord, over there (over there)
We shout (we shout) troubles over (troubles over)
Lord, over there (over there)
We shout (we shout) troubles over (troubles over)
Lord, where the angels singing and joy bell ringing and glory (glory)
Lord, how far (how far) am I (am I) from Canaan?
Lord, up there (up there), I'll meet my mother
Lord, up there (up there), I'll meet my mother
Lord, where the angels singing and joy bell ringing and glory
Lord, how far (how far) am I (am I) from Canaan?
Lord, when I (Lord, yes when I) get on home (when I get on home)
My Savior (my Savior when I see you) I'll join (I'll join)
Well, I'll shout (well, I'll shout), God knows I'm gonna dwell
Child, hey, Lord, God knows, I wanna know how far (how far)
Am I (am I) from Canaan
