The Old Gospel Ship
I have good new to bring
And that is why I sing
All my joys with you I'll share
Oh I'm gonna take a trip
In the old gospel ship
And go sailing through the air
Well I'm gonna take a trip
In the old gospel ship
I'm going far beyond the sky
Oh I'm gonna shout and sing
Until all heavens bring
When I'm bidding this world goodbye
Oh I can scarcely wait
I know I'll not be late
For I'll spend my time in prayer
And when my ship comes in
I'll leave this world of sin
And go sailing through the air
Oh if you're ashamed of me
You have no cause to be
For with Christ I am an heir
And if too much fault you find
You're sure to be left behind
When I go sailing through the air
