Текст песни How Far Am I From Canaan? - 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, Lord, subside

Oh yes, I can hear the angels singing
I can see, Lord, them around the throne
Well, I can hear, I hear the saints, child, oh, singing
Hallelujah, Hallelujah now, now 'tis done, oh, yes

Tell me, how far am I from Canaan?
Lord, how far am I from Canaan?
Well, where the angels singing and joy bell ringing in glory
Lord, how far am I from Canaan?

Lord over there we shout troubles over
Lord over there we shout troubles over
Well, where the angels singing and joy bell ringing in glory
Lord, how far am I from Canaan?

Lord up there I'll lead my mother
Lord up there I'll lead my mother
Well, where the angels singing and joy bell ringing in glory
Lord, 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
Lord, knows I wanna know how far am I from Canaan?
