Don't you see that ship asailin', asailin', asailin',
Don't you see that ship asailin',
Gwine over to the Promised Land?
I asked my Lord, shall I ever be the one, shall I ever be the one, shall I ever be the one,
To go sailin', sailin', sailin', sailin',
Gwine over to the Promised Land?

She sails like she is heavy loaded.
King Jesus is the Captain.
The Holy Ghost is the Pilot.
