Johnny Cash I Corinthians 15 55
Oh death where is thy sting
Oh grave where is thy victory
Oh life you are a shining path
and hope springs eternal just over the rise
when I see my redeemer beckoning me.
Oh row my ship over the waves of your sea
let me find a safe port now and then
don't let the dark one in your sanctuary
until it's time to pack it in.
Oh row row my ship with the fire of your breath and don't lay a broadside on your ship as yet
blow ye warm winds when its chilly and wet
and don't come to soon for collecting my debt.
Oh death where is thy sting
Oh grave where is thy victory
Oh life you are a shining path
and hope springs eternal just over the rise
when I see my redeemer beckoning me.
Oh let me sail on with my ships to the east
and keep my eye on the North Star
when the journey is no good for man or for beast
I'll be safe where ever you are.
Just let me sail in to your harbour of lights
and there and forever to cast out my lines
give me my task and let me do it right
and do it with all of my might.
Oh death where is thy sting
Oh grave where is thy victory
Oh life you are a shining path
and hope springs eternal just over the rise
when I see my redeemer beckoning me.
