To Canaan’s land I’m on my way
Where the soul of man never dies;
My darkest night will turn to day
Where the soul of man never dies.
Dear friends
there’ll be no sad farewells
There’ll be no tear dimmed eyes
Where all is peace and joy and love
And the soul of man never dies.
A rose is blooming there for me
Where the soul of man never dies;
And I will spend eternity
Where the soul of man never dies.
A love light beams across the foam
Where the soul of man never dies;
It shines to light the shores of home
Where the soul of man never dies.
My life will end in deathless sleep
Where the soul of man never dies;
And everlasting joys I’ll reap
Where the soul of man never dies.
I’m on my way to that fair land
Where the soul of man never dies;
Where there will be no parting hand
Where the soul of man never dies.
