What Ship Is This Youre Sailing In

What ship is this you're sailing in,

This wondrous ship of fame?

The ship is called the "Church of God"

And Christ's the Captain's name.

Refrain

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."

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.

Refrain

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.

Refrain

Do you not fear the stormy seas

Your bark may overwhelm?

You need not fear-the Lord is near,

And Christ is at the helm!

Refrain

Heave out your boat and come on board;

You say there's plenty room;

The Captain says, "You're welcome now;

Make no delay, but come."

Refrain

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.
