The Old Gospel Ship

Well, I have good news to bring
And that is why I sing
All my joy with you I'll share
Well, I'm gonna take a trip
On the good old gospel ship
And go sailing through the air

Well, I'm gonna take a trip
In the good old gospel ship
I am going far beyond the sky
Well, I'm gonna shout and sing
Until the heavens ring
As I'm bidding this world goodbye

Oh, I can scarcely wait
And I know I'll not be late
For I spend my time in prayer
And when my ship comes in
I will leave this world of sin
And go sailing through the air

Oh, I'm gonna take a trip
On the good old gospel ship
I am going far beyond the sky
Well, I'm gonna shout and sing
Until the heavens ring
As I'm bidding this world goodbye

If you're ashamed of me
You got no cause to be
For with God, I am an heir
And if too much fault you find
You will sure be left behind
As I go sailing through the air

Well, I'm gonna take a trip
On the good old gospel ship
I am going far beyond the sky
Well I'm gonna shout and sing
Until the heavens ring
As I'm bidding this world goodbye
As I'm bidding this world goodbye
