Chords for The Gospel Plowboys - The Old Ship of Zion

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