 Repeat twice for the first verse

1. What ship is that a sailing, Hallelujah,
   What ship is that a sailing, Hallelu.
   Do you think that she is able,
   For to carry us all home. O glory, Hallelu.

   'Tis the old ship of Zion, Hallelujah,
   'Tis the old ship of Zion, Hallelu.
   Do you think that she is able,
   For to carry us all home. O glory, Hallelu.

   Do you think that she is able, Hallelujah,
   Do you think that she is able, Hallelu.
   Do you think that she is able,
   For to carry us all home. O glory, Hallelu.

In singing the last two verses the music is not to be repeated.

2. She has landed many a thousand, Hallelujah,
   She has landed many a thousand, Hallelu,
   She has landed many a thousand,
   And will land as many a more. Oh glory, Hallelu.

3. She is loaded down with angels, Hallelujah,
   She is loaded down with angels, Hallelu,
   And King Jesus is the Captain,
   And he'll carry us all home. Oh glory, Hallelu.
