Chords

My wife helped me figure this one out. 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
