Canaan Bound Lyrics by Andrew Peterson

Love and Thunder

2003

[Verse 1]
Sarah, take me by my arm
Tomorrow we are Canaan bound
Where westward sails the golden sun
And Hebron's hills are amber-crowned
[Verse 2]
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
[Chorus]
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
[Verse 3]
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
[Chorus]
Long after we are dead and gone
For 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
[Verse 4]
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
