Q posted the lyrics to the Civil Rights song "We're On Our Way To Freedom Land" {"We're On Our Way To Selma Land"}. Given that the words to the religious song is the same as the civil rights song except for "canaan land" or "the promised land", couldn't it be listed in the alphabetized listing on this AA Spirituals Permathread?

As is the case with other songs, this song may have come from a White camp time meeting song, but a number of websites, including
https://www.oldtownschool.org/resources/songnotes/songnotes_I.html seem to consider it an African American spiritual.
