61. Oh! the gospel ship

1 Alas, and did my Savior bleed,
And did my sovereign die,
Would He devote that sacred head
For such a worm as I.

Refrain:
Oh, the gospel ship is a gallant ship,
A ship that's safe and sound,
Oh, who will ride on the Gospel Ship,
For the glorious land she's bound.

2 It's come without money,
And there's no price,
No terms could easier be
For Jesus died and
He paid it all,
And now our pass is free. [Refrain]

3 But drops or grief can ne're repay
The debt of love I owe
Here Lord I give myself away,
'Tis all that I can do. [Refrain]
