Lyrics
To Canaan’s land I’m on my way where the soul never dies
My darkest night will turn to day where the soul never dies
No sad farewell (And there’ll be no sad farewell)
No tear-dimmed eyes (There will be no tear-dimmed eyes)
Where all His deeds, His 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 shall live eternally where the soul of man never dies
No sad farewell (And there’ll be no sad farewell)
No tear-dimmed eyes (There will be no tear-dimmed eyes)
Where all His deeds, His joy and love and the soul of man never dies
No sad farewell (And there’ll be no sad farewell)
No tear-dimmed eyes (There will be no tear-dimmed eyes)
Where all His deeds, His joy and love and the soul of man never dies
No sad farewell (And there’ll be no sad farewell)
No tear-dimmed eyes (There will be no tear-dimmed eyes)
Where all His deeds, His joy and love and the soul of man never dies (No sad farewell)
