Canaan Bound
guitar chords lyrics
My wife helped me figure this one out.
Hope it's good.
It might be played in F, but for our voices it worked better in D.

Verse 1
D G D
Sarah, take me by my arm
D G A
Tomorrow we are Canaan bound
Bm A D G
Where westward sails the golden sun
D G A D
And Hebron's hills are amber crowned
Verse 2
D G D
So bid your troubled heart be still
D G A
The grass, they say, is soft and green
Bm A D G
The trees are tall and honey-filled
D G A D A
So, Sarah, come and walk with me
Chorus:
Bm A D G
Like the stars across the heavens flung
D G A
Like water in the desert sprung
Bm A D G
Like the grains of sand, our many sons
D G A Bm
Oh, Sarah, fair and barren one
G A D
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
Played same as chorus:
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
Bm A D G
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
