Mahalia Jackson
Lyrics
n my way to Canaan land :)
I'm on my way, well to Canaan land
On my way, oh yes, Canaan land
On my way, glory hallelujah, I'm on my way
Well I'm on my way, oh to Canaan land
Well I'm on my way, oh to Canaan land
On my way, Canaan land
On my way, glory hallelujah, I'm on my way
I had a mighty hard time
But I'm on my way
Had a mighty hard time
Well well well, on my way
Mighty hard time on my way
On my way, glory hallelujah, on my way
If you don't go, don't you hinder me
If you don't go, ...hinder me
If you don't go, don't hinder me
On my way, glory hallelujah, on my way
I'm falling and rising
But I'm on my way
I'm falling and rising
I'm on my way
I'm falling and rising
On my way, yeah
On my way, glory hallelujah, on my way
