Camping In Canaans Land

Tom: G

G                               C
I have left the land of bondage with its earthly treasures

     G                                     A7            D7
I've journeyed to the place where there is love on every hand

G                                     C
I've exchanged the land of heartaches for the land of pleasure

    G                      D7             G
I'm camping I'm camping in Canaan's happy land


                      C
Every day I'm camping in the land of Canaan

    G                       A7              D7
And in rapture I survey its wondrous beauty grand

G                       C
Glory hallelujah I have reached the land of promise

    G                      D7             G
I'm camping I'm camping in Canaan's happy land


Out of Egypt I have traveled, thru the darkness, dreary,

Far over hills and valleys and across the desert sands

But I"ve landed safe at home where I shall not grow weary

I'm camping, I'm camping, in Canaan's happy land.
                                     C
Yes I've reached the land of promise with the scenes of glory

   G                           A7            D7
My journey ended in a place so lovely and so grand

G                              C
I've been led by Jesus to this blessed land of story

    G                      D7             G
I'm camping I'm camping in Canaan's happy land


                        C
Every day I'm camping in the land of Canaan

    G                       A7              D7
And in rapture I survey its wondrous beauty grand

G                       C
Glory hallelujah I have reached the land of promise

    G                      D7             G
I'm camping I'm camping in Canaan's happy land


                        C
Glory hallelujah I have reached the land of promise

    G                      D7             G
I'm camping I'm camping in Canaan's happy land
