[G#] I was [B] standing on the banks of a river, looking out at my troubled [F#] sea,
[G#] When I [B] saw an old ship that was sailing, Is that the old ship of Zion I see?
Its hull was being [G#m] battered from [B] the storms of life I could [F#]
see,
[B] Waves were rough but that old ship was sailing, Is that the old ship [F#] of Zion [B] I see?
At the stern of the ship was a captain, And I could hear as he called out my [F#] name,
[B] Get on board, its the old ship of Zion, [G#] It [B] will never pass this way again,
[F#] As [B] I step on board I'll be leaving, All my troubles and trials [F#]
behind,
I'll [B] be sailing [D#]
with [B] Jesus the captain, Sailing out on the old ship of Zion,
Sailing out on the old ship [F#]
of [E] Zion.
