1 Do you know the language of Canaan?
Hallelujah, amen, glory;
'Tis the sweetest language e'er spoken,
Hallelujah, amen, glory!

Refrain:
Do you know, Do you know?
Do you know the language of Canaan?
Do you know, Do you know?
Do you know the language of Canaan?

2 When the sky is clear I am singing,
Hallelujah, amen, glory;
When my path seems drear, still 'tis ringing,
Hallelujah, amen, glory! [Refrain]

3 When my fondest hopes are all shattered,
Hallelujah, amen, glory;
Tho' from me my friends may be scattered,
Hallelujah, amen, glory! [Refrain]

4 When it seems that all must go wrong,
Hallelujah, amen, glory;
I keep sweet and just sing this song,
Hallelujah, amen, glory! [Refrain]

5 Will you not this language be learning,
Hallelujah, amen, glory;
Then your heart with love will be burning,
Hallelujah, amen, glory! [Refrain]
