Gospel Ship Lyrics & Chords

By The Carter Family

(C)I'm going to take a trip in that good old gospel ship       

I'm going far beyond the (G)sky 

(C)I'm gonna shout and sing till heaven rings              

When I bid this (G)world good(C)bye



(C)I have good news to bring and that is why I sing

All my joys with you I'll (G)share

(C)I'm going to take a trip in that good old gospel ship       

And go sailing (G)through the (C)air



(C)I can scarcely wait I know I won't be late

I'll spend my time in (G)prayer

(C)And when the ship comes in I'll leave this world of sin

And go sailing (G)through the (C)air

 

(C)If you are ashamed of me you ought not to be

Yes you'd better have a (G)care

(C)If too much fault you find you will sure be left behind

While I'm sailing (G)through the (C)air.
