Canaan Melodies (Canaan Melodies #2)

Written by Rev. E Hilton Post, Arthur F Ingler, this is another song celebrating God's sanctifying grace. What a joy to sing "glory hallelujah my soul is sanctified!" and "I have the second blessing, from sin my soul is freed!"

I had my CrossRoad bandmates join me to give it a real upbeat feel.

I love this song! I can't stop singing it with joy!

1. My heart is filled with singing I’m happy all the time
Within the bells are ringing their melody sublime
The music of redemption is wafted on the breeze
My soul is filled with glory and Canaan melodies

Refrain:
O glory hallelujah! My soul is sanctified
He fills me with His glory as in Him I confide
I have the “second blessing” I’m free from sin’s disease
And now I’m always singing sweet Canaan melodies

2. My life was full of pining and grumbling ev’ry day
But now tis spent in shining and singing on the way
My soul is filled with laughter and with me it agrees
So now I’m always singing sweet Canaan melodies

3. You ask me “what’s the secret of such a happy frame?”
I answer “tis the Spirit that keeps my heart aflame”
He sanctifies me wholly, from sin my soul He freed
And fills me with His glory and Canaan melodies

4. O Christian, cease your struggling with carnal nature’s power
And seek the second blessing for purity this hour
Your service for the Master will then be done with ease
And you’ll be always singing sweet Canaan melodies
