Gonna shout trouble over <br/>{{ש}}

When I get home. <br/>{{ש}}

No mo' prayin' an' no mo' dyin' <br/>{{ש}}

When I get home. <br/>{{ש}}

Meet my father <br/>{{ש}}

<br/>{{ש}} When I get home.

By and by, I'm goin' to lay down this heavy load. <br/>{{ש}}

<br/>{{ש}} By and by, by and by, I'm goin' to lay down this heavy load.

I'm gonna lay down this world, <br/>{{ש}}

I'm gonna shoulder up my cross <br/>{{ש}}

Going home, to the Promised Land <br/>{{ש}}

<br/>{{ש}} And be free.

O my Lord delivered Daniel,<br/>{{ש}}

O why not deliver me too?<br/>{{ש}}

He delivered Daniel from de lion’s den,<br/>{{ש}}

Jonah from de belly ob de whale,<br/>{{ש}}

And de Hebrew Children from de fiery furnace,<br/>{{ש}}

And why not every man? <br/>{{ש}}

There is a land of pure delight, <br/>{{ש}}

<br/>{{ש}} Where saints immortal reign.

Infinite day excludes the night, <br/>{{ש}}

And pleasures banish pain. <br/>{{ש}}

There everlasting spring abides. <br/>{{ש}}

And never-with'ring flow'ers; <br/>{{ש}}

Death, like a narrow sea divides <br/>{{ש}}

This heav'nly land from ours. <br/>{{ש}}

Sweet fields beyond the swelling flood, <br/>{{ש}}

Stand dress'd in living green; <br/>{{ש}}

So, to the Jews, old Canaan stood, <br/>{{ש}}

While Jordan rolled between.{{הערה|Southern Eileen, The Music of Black Americans: A History (N. Y.: Norton. 1971, p. 88)}}<br/>{{ש}}

‘O Canaan, sweet Canaan, <br/>{{ש}}

I am bound for the land of Canaan,’<br/>{{ש}}

Run to Jesus, shun the danger,<br/>{{ש}}

I don’t expect to stay much longer here.<br/>{{ש}}

Dark and thorny is de pathway <br/>{{ש}}

Where de pilgrim makes his way; <br/>{{ש}}

But beyond dis vale of sorrow <br/>{{ש}}

Lie de fields of endless days.{{הערה|Southern Eileen, The Music of Black Americans: A History (N. Y.: Norton. 1971, p. 130)}}<br/>{{ש}}
