The New Wine of Canaan

I am drink­ing at the fount­ain

That will nev­er run dry

Drinking of the new wine of Ca­naan;

The Sav­ior heard my plead­ing

And my anx­ious cry

I yield­ed

and the bless­èd

Holy Ghost came in.

Drinking at the fount­ain

Daily at the fount­ain

Feasting on the new wine of Ca­naan

And my Sav­ior sa­tis­fies my eve­ry long­ing

For I’m dwell­ing in the land of Ca­naan.

Oh

the load of sin I car­ried

Has been taken aw­ay

Now from sin I’m free

hal­le­lu­jah

While lean­ing on His lov­ing

Arm I can­not stray;

He dwells with me

the bless­èd

Holy Ghost each day.

He is will­ing

He is wait­ing

Now to make your heart pure

Open wide the door

bid Him en­ter;

Oh

hear Him

still He’s knock­ing

Hear Him still im­plore;

Throw op­en wide the door

And He will en­ter in.
