The Ship Of The King Is Sailing
Author: Adam Dan Hymnal: Hymnal for Church and Home #286 (1927) Meter: 8.8.9.8 Lyrics: 1 The ship of the King is sailing
From earth to the heavenly land;
It steadily cuts thro' the billows,
Controll'd by His masterly hand.
2 Adrift over life's dark ocean
Are wrecks of the proud and forlorn
Who, scorning the compass and pilot,
Were put by the billows to scorn.
3 But safely thro' shoals and shallows,
Thro' storms and the billow's wild roar,
The ship of the King presses onward
To heaven's the sun lighted shore.
4 And foremost among His heroes
Is standing the King of all kings,
His features are bright as the sunlight,
His voice with great tenderness rings.
5 He views the ship-wreck'd with sadness,
And calling to east and to west,
He gathers them into the life-boat,
As many as long for His rest.
6 And quickly the ship is filling
With precious souls on it way,
And soon we shall run into harbor
And into the sun-lighted day. Topics: Spiritual Songs Faith Languages: English Tune Title: [The ship of the King is sailing]

And calling to east and to west,

As many as long for His rest.
