Cântăre The gospel of grace

They say in the harbor of heaven

Is a ship called the Gospel of Grace

A glorious ship that once made a trip

Through the oceans of time and space

She followed a star to a stable

She carried the Child of the King

And when she set sail

So goes the tale

All of the angels would sing



CHORUS:

The Gospel of Grace is sailing

What a glorious sight to behold

Her heavenly banners are waving

Her sails are covered with gold

They say when a man looks upon her

The glory will shine on his face

For there’ll never be a ship on the sea

Like the glorious Gospel of Grace



She sailed to the land of the lonely

To the meek and the lowly she came

And each one she passed

From the first to the last

Would never again be the same

The voice of the Father had spoken

A heavenly sign had come down

And everyone knew

His promise was true

The heavens were filled with the sound



CHORUS



Then one day she sank to the bottom

At a place called old rugged cross

But the Child of the King now her captain

Came sailing her back to the top

And then as they sailed off toward heaven

He called out, "Get ready my friends

I must go away

But there’ll come a day

I promise you’ll see Me again"



And the Gospel of Grace will be sailing

What a glorious sight we’ll behold

Her heavenly banners a waving

She’s coming to carry us home

For now we see through a glass darkly

But then we will see face to face

And as we climb aboard

We’ll give thanks to the Lord

For His glorious Gospel of Grace

And as we climb aboard

We’ll give thanks to the Lord

For His glorious Gospel of Grace
