What are the lyrics to the gospel song 'Get on Board'?

Answer 1

We're floating down the stream of time, we have not long to stay.

The stormy clouds of darkness will turn to brightest day.

Then let us all take courage for we're not left alone.

The life-boat soon is coming to gather the Jewels home.

Then cheer, my brothers cheer, our trials will soon be o'er.

Our loved ones we shall meet, shall meet upon the golden shore.

We're pilgrims and we're strangers here, we're seeking a city to come.

The life-boat soon is coming to gather the Jewels home.

The life-boat soon is coming by eye of faith I see.

As she sweeps through the waters to rescue you and me,

And land us safely in the port with friends we love so dear.

"Get ready," cries the Captain, "O look, she's almost here."

Then cheer, my sisters cheer, our trials will soon be o'er.

Our loved ones we shall meet, shall meet upon the golden shore.

We're pilgrims and we're strangers here, we're seeking a city to come.

The life-boat soon is coming to gather the Jewels home.

Now's the time to get on board while she is passing by.

But if you stand and wait too long, you shall forever die.

The fare is paid for one and all, the Captain bids you come,

And get on board the life-boat she'll carry you safely home.

Then cheer, my brothers cheer, our trials will soon be o'er.

Our loved ones we shall meet, shall meet upon the golden shore.

We're pilgrims and we're strangers here, we're seeking a city to come.

The life-boat soon is coming to gather the Jewels home.
