The Lifeboat Lyrics & Chords

(D)We're floating down the stream of time, we (G)have not long to (D)stay
The stormy clouds of darkness will turn to (E)brightest (A)day
Then (D)let us all take courage for (G)we're not left (D)alone
The life-boat soon is coming to (G)gather the Jewels (D)home
Chorus
(D)Then cheer, my brothers cheer, our (G)trials will soon be (D)o'er
Our loved ones we shall meet, shall meet upon the (E)golden (A)shore
We're (D)pilgrims and we're strangers here, we're (G)seeking a city to (D)come
The life-boat soon is coming to (G)gather the Jewels (D)home
(D)The life-boat soon is coming by (G)eye of faith I (D)see
As she sweeps through the waters to (E)rescue you and (A)me
And (D)land us safely in the port with (G)friends we love so (D)dear
"Get ready," cries the Captain, "O (G)look, she's almost (D)here"
(D)Then cheer, my sisters cheer, our (G)trials will soon be (D)o'er
Our loved ones we shall meet, shall meet (E)upon the golden (A)shore
We're (D)pilgrims and we're strangers here, we're (G)seeking a city to (D)come
The life-boat soon is coming to (G)gather the Jewels (D)home
(D)Now's the time to get on board while (G)she is passing (D)by
But if you stand and wait too long, you (E)shall forever (A)die
The (D)fare is paid for one and all, the (G)Captain bids you (D)come
And get on board the life-boat she'll (G)carry you safely (D)home.
