<blockquote><p>What ship is this that will take us all home,<br />
Oh, glory hallelujah,<br />
And safely land us on Canaan’s bright shore?<br />
Oh, glory hallelujah.</p>
<p>’Tis the old ship of Zion, hallelujah.</p>
<p>The winds may blow and the billows may foam,<br />
Oh, glory hallelujah,<br />
But she is able to land us all home.<br />
Oh, glory hallelujah.</p>
<p>She landed all who have gone before,<br />
Oh, glory hallelujah,<br />
And yet she is able to land still more,<br />
Oh, glory hallelujah.</p>
<p>If I arrive there, then, before you do,<br />
Oh, glory hallelujah,<br />
I’ll tell them that you are coming up, too,<br />
Oh, glory hallelujah.</p></blockquote>
