Sunday Morning Mountain Gospel Music 182

Old Ship of Zion sung by Ralph Stanley


 




I was standing on the banks of the river
Looking out over life's troubled sea
When I saw that old ship a sailing
Is that the old ship of Zion I see?

It's hold was bent and battered
From the storms of life I could see
The ways were rough but the old ship was sailing
Is that the old ship of Zion I see?

At the stern of the ship was the Captain
I could hear as he called out my name
Get on board, it's the old ship of Zion
It may never pass this way again

As I step on board I'll be leaving
All my troubles and trials behind
I'll be safe with Jesus the Captain
Sailing out on the old ship of Zion.........
