How Far Am I From Canaan? Lyrics - Specialty Profiles: Sam Cooke & The Soul Stirrers - Sam Cooke

I am standing on the Jordan 

Gazing 'cross the stormy tide 

There I'll rest my every burden 

'Til all doubts and fears, doubts and fears subside 

Oh yes, I can hear the angels singing 

Well, well, I can see them around the throne 

Well, I can hear, I hear the saints, child, oh, singing 

Hallelujah, Hallelujah now, now 'tis done, yes, it is 

Tell me, how far am I from Canaan? 

Lord, how far am I from Canaan? 

Where well, the angels singing and joy bell ringing 

Well, I wanna know how far am I from Canaan 

Lord, when I get on home, my Savior I'll join 

Well, I'll shout, God knows I'm gonna dwell, child 

Where with the angels singing 

Well, Lord, I wanna know how far, child, am I from Canaan
