Verse 1
Oh the time will come
up when the
winds will s
top
And the
breeze will
cease to be a-
breathin
Like the
stillness in the
wind before the
hurricane be
gins,
The ho
ur that the
ship comes
in
And the
sea will s
plit and the
ships will hit
And the
sands on the s
horeline will be
shaking
And the
tide will sound and the
waves will
pound
And the
morning
will
be a-
break
ing
Verse 2
Oh the fishes will laugh as they swim out of the path
And the seagulls will be a-smilin'
And the rocks on the sand will proudly stand
The hour that the ship comes in
And the words that are used for to get the ship confused
Will not be understood as they're spoken
Oh the chains of the sea will have busted in the night
And be buried on the bottom of the ocean
Verse 3
A song will lift as the main sail shifts
And the boat drifts unto the shoreline
And the sun will respect every face on the deck
The hour that the ship comes in
And the sands will roll out a carpet of gold
For your wearied toes to be a-touchin'
And the ship's wise men will remind you once again
That the whole wide world is watchin'
Verse 4
Oh the foes will rise with the sleep still in their eyes
And they'll jerk from their beds and think they're dreamin'
But they'll pinch themselves and squeal
And they'll know that it's for real,
The hour that the ship comes in
And they'll raise their hands
Sayin' we'll meet all you demands
But we'll shout from the bow
Your days are numbered
And like Pharoah's tribe they'll be drownded in the tide
And like Goliath they'll be conquered
