There's comin' a time on the great judgment mornin'
When the Saviour will welcome you home
Will you be prepared for the journey to heaven?
On the great ship that carries God's chosen ones home

Oh, the waters' so deep on the river of Jordan
And the lite shines so bright from heaven above
And the midnight is past a new day is dawning
(And heaven on high)
Oh, the great ship will anchor in the harbor of love

If you're wanderin' in sin away from God's teaching
Won't you ask Him to show you the way?
Fall down on your knees in the chapel next Sunday
And meet all your friends at the heaven some day

Oh, the waters' so deep on the river of Jordan
And the lite shines so bright from heaven above
And the midnight is past a new day is dawnin'
(And heaven on high)
Oh, the great ship will anchor in the harbor of love
