I WAS LIVING IN THE LAND OF BONDAGE
WHERE I NEVER SAW THE LIGHT OF DAY
THOUGHT I'D NEVER BE FREE AGAIN
GOD SENT HIS ONLY SON TO DELIVER ME
AND SHOW ME A BETTER WAY
I'VE PASSED OVER INTO CANAAN LAND
(CHORUS)
HE BROUGHT ME OUT OF THE BARREN WILDERNESS
TO A PLACE THAT HE CHOSE FOR ME
I'VE COME TOO FAR TO EVER TURN AROUND AGAIN
YES, HE'S WALKING ALL THE WAY BESIDE ME
AND MY SOUL'S FOUND VICTORY
I'VE PASSED OVER INTO CANAAN LAND
MILK AND HONEY IN THE LAND OF PROMISE
THERE ARE GRAPES HANGING ON THE VINE
I AM CAMPING WITH A HAPPY BAND
NEVER GONNA LONG FOR THE LEEKS AND GARLIC
I'VE LEFT EGYPT FAR BEHIND
I'VE PASSED OVER INTO CANAAN LAND
