A little more old-time, tent-revival gospel:

CAMPING IN CANAAN'S LAND (Albert E. Brumley)

I have left the land of bondage with its earthly treasures
I've journeyed to a place where there is love on every hand
I've exchanged a land of heartaches for a land of pleasures
And I'm camping, I'm camping in Canaan's happy land

Refrain:

Every day I'm camping (camping) in the land of Canaan (Canaan's land)
And with rapture I survey its wondrous beauties grand (O glory)
Glory, hallelujah, I have found the land of promise, and
I'm camping, I'm camping in Canaan's happy land

Out of Egypt I have travelled, thru the darkness dreary
Far over hills and valleys and across the desert sands
But I've landed safe at home where I shall not grow weary
I'm camping, I'm camping in Canaan's happy land

Refrain

Yes, I've reached the land of promise with its scenes of glory
My journey ended in a place so lovely and so grand
I've been led by Jesus to this blessed land of story
I'm camping, I'm camping in Canaan's happy land

Refrain
