Oh when shall I see Jesus
And reign with Him above,
And from the flowing fountain
Drink everlasting love?
I’m on my way to Canaan,
To the new Jerusalem.
When shall I be delivered
From this vain world of sin,
And with my blessed Jesus
Drink endless pleasures in?
I’m on my way to Canaan,
To the new Jerusalem.
But now I am a soldier,
My Captain’s gone before;
He’s given me my orders,
And bids me not give o’er.
I’m on my way to Canaan,
To the new Jerusalem.
