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