[Verse 1]
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 of my life.
[Pre-Channel A]
But then I heard God's Spirit saying:
"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!"
[Hook #1]
I said good, goodbye Egypt,
I'm leaving and I'm never coming back again.
Goodbye, goodbye Egypt - hello Canaanland.
[Verse 2]
So listen friend if you're a prisoner,
Tired of chains that bind your soul.
Believe the Lord will break the fetter,
Oh He wants you to be happy and whole.
[Pre-Channel B]
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 want to be be free.
[Hook 2]
And say good, goodbye Egypt,
I'm leaving and I'm never coming back again.
Goodbye, goodbye Egypt - hello Canaanland.
[BRIDGE]
Goodbye, old way of living
Hello, loved and forgiven
Goodbye, death and the grave
Hello heaven, thank God I'm saved!
[Hook #3]
I say good, goodbye Egypt,
I'm leaving and I'm never coming back again.
Goodbye, goodbye Egypt
Hello Canaanland.
Goodbye Egypt,
I'm leaving and I'm never coming back again.
Goodbye Egypt - hello, hello, hello, hello hello
Hello----Cannanland.
Goodbye Egypt, hello Canaanland!
