Lyrics
Egypt was once my home, I was a slave
Helpless in sin did roam, love-light did crave
But when I looked up to heaven's dome Christ came to save
I'm living in Canaan now
Living on Canaan's side and Egypt behind
Crossed over Jordan wide, gladness to find
My soul is satisfied, no longer blind
Living with Jesus up in Canaan right now
Satan may have you bound with fetters strong
Well just look up to higher ground 'twill not be long
'Till Christ the Saviour your soul has found
You'll sing this song
I'm living in Canaan now
I'm living on Canaan's side and Egypt behind
Crossed over Jordan wide, gladness to find
My soul is satisfied, no longer blind
Living with Jesus up in Canaan right now
Living on Canaan's side and Egypt behind
Crossed over Jordan wide, gladness to find
My soul is satisfied...
(my soul is satisfied)
Well I'm living with Jesus up in Canaan right now
