You've seen the hillside covered with devils brewing sin And think it's not as holy as old Jerusalem You tell the folks who're listening you're leaving here for good You'll walk from here to Israel to stand where Jesus stood You don't have to walk From Caney Creek to Canaan Land to find the Lord Well you don't have to walk that far no more If it's the Lord you're looking for You don't have to walk that far no more Right here on the mountainside beneath the tall hill larchs On the banks of Caney Creek you'll find the son of god Standing on the water's edge his arms are open wide He's been there awaiting since the day he gave you life You don't have to walk From Caney Creek to Canaan Land to find the Lord
Well you don't have to walk that far no more If it's the Lord you're looking for You don't have to walk that far no more Jesus walks this mountain top, he lives on every ridge His hand is on the peony rose the birds and trees are his When you want to find him he's right there in your heart No need to search no further he's right there where you are You don't have to walk From Caney Creek to Canaan Land to find the Lord Well you don't have to walk that far no more If it's the Lord you're looking for You don't have to walk that far no more If it's my Lord you're looking for You don't have to walk that far no more
