THE SHIP OF FAME

What ship is this you're sailing on

This wondrous ship of fame

The ship is called the church of God

And Christ the captain's name

CHORUS

Come join our happy crew

We're bound for Canaan's shore

The captain says there’s room for you

And room for millions more

Verse 2

What wages do you get

On board this ship that you command

We’ve love and joy and peace and grace

And glory in the end

CHORUS

Verse 3

And what’s the crew that sails with you

On board this ship so grand

The saints of God all washed in blood

And under Christ’s command

CHORUS

Verse 4

Do you not fear the stormy seas

Your bark may overwhelm

You need not fear your Lord is near

And Christ is at the helm

CHORUS

Verse 5

Then hoist the sails and

Catch the breeze and soon the

Journey’s o'er the ship will

Land you safe at last on

Canaan’s happy shore
