| The lyric of The Old Gospel Ship, Iris Dement's song I have good new to bringAnd that is why I singAll my joys with you I will save.Well I m gonna take a tripOn the old gospel shipAnd go sailing through the air.Refrain:Well I m gonna take a tripOn the old gospel ship;I m going far beyond the sky.Well I m gonna shout and singUntil heavens bringThat s I m bidding this world goodbye.Refrain:Oh I can scarecely waitI know I ll not be late.For I ll spend all my time in prayerAnd when my ship comes inI will leave this world of sinAnd go sailing through the air.Refrain:Well I m gonna take a tripOn the old gospel ship;I m going far beyond the sky.Well I m gonna shout and singUntil heavens bringAs I m bidding this world goodbye.If you are ashamed of meYou ve got no cause to beWhat we ve gotI ain t ???It s too much fault you findYou ll sure be left behindI ll go sailing through the air.Refrain:Well I m gonna take a tripOn the old gospel ship;I m going far beyond the sky.Well I m gonna shout and singUntil heavens bringAs I m bidding this world goodbye.As I m bidding this world goodbye.
