Songtext von Canaan Bound

Sarah, take me by my arm Tomorrow we are Canaan bound Where westward sails the golden sun And Hebron's hills are amber crowned So bid your troubled heart be still The grass, they say, is soft and green The trees are tall and honey-filled So, Sarah, come and walk with me Like the stars across the heavens flung Like water in the desert sprung Like the grains of sand, our many sons Oh, Sarah, fair and barren one Come to Canaan, come I trembled at the voice of God A voice of love and thunder deep With love He means to save us all And Love has chosen you and me Long after we are dead and gone A thousand years our tale be sung How faith compelled and bore us on How barren Sarah bore a son So come to Canaan, come Where westward sails the golden sun And Hebron's hills are amber crowned Oh, Sarah, take me by my arm Tomorrow we are Canaan bound
