Goodbye Egypt (Hello Canaanland)
by Blackwood Brothers

Album: Sweet Songs About Heaven

I was born in Egypt's bondage
I was bound by sin and strife
I was sure that I would wander in the wilderness for all my life

But then I heard God's spirit say
"This desert's not where you should be
There's a land that flows with milk and honey
So pack your bags and follow me and say,"

Goodbye Egypt, I'm leaving and I'm never coming back again
Goodbye Egypt, Hello Canaanland

So listen friend if you're a prisoner
Tired of chains that bind your soul
Believe the Lord will break the fetters
He wants you to be happy and whole

Just call on him and he will lead you
Out of your captivity
Into that promised land of plenty
Get up, get going if you wanna be free and say

Goodbye Egypt, I'm leaving and I'm never coming back again
Goodbye Egypt, Hello Canaanland

Goodbye old way of living
Hello loved and forgiven
Goodbye death and the grave
Hello Heaven, thank God I'm saved

Goodbye Egypt, I'm leaving and I'm never coming back again
Goodbye Egypt, Hello Canaanland

Goodbye Egypt, I'm leaving and I'm never coming back again
Goodbye Egypt, Hello Canaanland

Goodbye Egypt, I'm leaving and I'm never coming back again
Goodbye Egypt, Hello Canaanland
