1 I have crossed Jordan’s ford of consecration
I possess the goodly land today;
‘Tis the promise of the Father to His children
And His word can never pass away.

Refrain:
Beautiful Canaan,
Beautiful Canaan,
Beautiful land of honey corn and milk and wine,
Fountains are springing,
Song birds are singing,
Beautiful Canaan, beautiful Canaan thou art mine.

2 I have reached the blessed promised land of Canaan
I have found the land of pure delight;
Here the glorious summer sun is ever shining,
All is brightness for there is no night. [Refrain]

3 Its a land that ever flows with milk and honey,
Luscious fruit of ev’ry kind abound;
Running brooks and blooming flow’rs and springing fountains
In this wondrous Canaan land are found. [Refrain]

4 Leave the wilderness of doubt and fear my brother,
Cross the Jordan die to self and sin;
Lay your all a sacrifice upon the alter,
Trust in Jesus and He’ll lead you in. [Refrain]
