2. If you get there before I do,

4. Our songs of praise shall fill the skies,

I am bound for the land of Canaan;
Look out for me I'm coming too, I am bound for the land of Canaan;
I am bound for the land of Canaan. While higher still our joys they rise,
O, Canaan, &c.
I am bound for the land of Canaan;
O, Canaan, &c.

3. I have some friends before me 5. Then come with me, beloved

friend,

gone, I am bound for the land of Canaan; I am bound for the land of Canaan; And I'm resolved to travel on, The joys of heaven shall never end, I am bound for the land of Canaan; I am bound for the land of Canaan; O, Canaan, &c. O, Canaan, &c.

How happy is the pilgrim's lot.

1. How happy is the pilgrim's lot, And seek a city out of sight,

I am bound for the land of Canaan, I am bound for the land of Canaan, How free from every anxious tho't, O Canaan, &c.

I am bound for the land of Canaan, 4. There is my house and portion O Canaan! bright Canaan,

fair,

I am bound for the land of Canaan, I am bound for the land of Canaan, O Canaan, it is my happy home, My treasure and my heart are there, I am bound for the land of Canaan. I am bound for the land of Canaan, 2. Nothing on earth I call my own, O Canaan, &c.

I am bound for the land of Canaan,
A stranger to the world unknown,

5. For me my elder brethren stay,
I am bound for the land of Canaan,

I am bound for the land of Canaan, And angels beckon me away,
O Canaan, &c.

I am bound for the land of Canaan,

3. I trample on the whole delight, O Canaan, &c.

I am bound for the land of Canaan,

you go

We're going to see the bleeding Lamb,-Will you go?
In rapturous strains to praise his name,—'
-Will
The crown of life we there shall wear,
The conqueror's palms our hands shall bear,
And all the joys of heaven we'll share! Will you go?

3

Will you go?
Will you go?

Will you go

Will you go Will you go?

We're going to join the Heavenly Choir,-Will you go?
To raise our voice and tune the lyre,-Will you go?
There saints and angels gladly sing,
Hosanna to their God and king,

And make the heavenly arches ring,-Will you go?

4

Will you go?

Ye weary, heavy laden, come,-Will you go? Will you go?
In the blest house there still is room,-Will you go? Will you go?
The Lord is waiting to receive,

If thou wilt on him now believe,
He'll give thy troubled conscience ease,-Come believe, O believe !

5

The way to Heaven is free for all,-Will you go?
Will you go?
For Jew and Gentile-great and small,-Will you go? Will you go
Make up your mind, give God your heart,

With every sin and idol part,

And now for glory make a start,—Come away!

6

Come away!

The way to Heaven is strait and plain,-Will you go? Will you go
Repent, believe, bè born again,-Will you go? Will you go?
The Savior cries aloud to thee,

"Take up thy cross and follow me,"

And thou shalt my salvation see,-Come to me! Come to me!

17

O, could I hear some sinner say,-I will go? I will go?

I'll start this moment, clear the way,--Let me go? Let me go?
My old companions, fare you well,

I will not go with you to hell,

I mean with Jesus Christ to dwell,-Let me go? Fare you weli.
