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