Like the stars across the heavens flung

Like water in the desert sprung

Like the grains of sand, our many sons

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
D G A
And Hebron's hills are amber crowned
Bm A D G
Oh, Sarah, take me by my arm
D G A D
Tomorrow we are Canaan Bound
