I Corinthians 1555

STRUM A CHORD (THE FIRST CHORUS IS PIANO - NO GUITAR)

[A]O Death, where is thy sting?
[E]O Grief, w[E7]here is thy v[D]ict[E]or[A]y?
[A]O Life, [A7]you are a shining p[D]ath.
[D]And hope springs eternal, just [A]over the rise,
When I s[E]ee my redeemer b[D]eckon[E]ing [A]me.

[A]Oh row my ship over the waves of your sea
Let me f[E]ind a safe port now and t[A]hen
Don't l[D]et the dark one in your s[A]anctuary
Unt[B]il it's time to pack it [E]in
[E]O, row, row my ship
With the f[A]ire of your breath
And d[E]on't lay a broadside on y[A]our ship as yet
[D]Blow ye warm winds
When it's c[A]hilly and wet
And d[B]on't come to soon
For coll[E]ecting my debt  [E7]

[A]O Death, where is thy sting?
[E]O Grief, w[E7]here is thy v[D]ict[E]or[A]y?
[A]O Life, [A7]you are a shining p[D]ath.
[D]And hope springs eternal, just [A]over the rise,
When I s[E]ee my redeemer b[D]eckon[E]ing [A]me.  [D]     [A]         [E]            [D]              [E]                [A]

[A]Oh let me sail on

With my ship to the East
And k[E]eep my eye on the North S[A]tar
When the j[D]ourney is no good for m[A]an or for beast
I'll b[B]e safe wherever you a[E]re
J[E]ust let me sail into your h[A]arbor of lights
And t[E]here and forever to c[A]ast out my light
Gi[D]ve me my task
And let [A]me do it right
And [B]do it with all of my m[E]ight [E7]

[A]O Death, where is thy sting?
[E]O Grief, w[E7]here is thy v[D]ict[E]or[A]y?
[A]O Life, [A7]you are a shining p[D]ath.
[D]And hope springs eternal, just [A]over the rise,
When I s[E]ee my redeemer b[D]eckon[E]ing [A]me.  [D]     [A]         [E]            [D]              [E]                [A]                   [D]                     [E]                       [A]                          [D]                            [E]                              [A]
