CHORUS:

O Death, where is thy sting?
E E7 D E A
O Grief, where is thy victory?
A A7 D
O Life, you are a shining path.
D A
And hope springs eternal, just over the rise,
E D E A
When I see my redeemer beckoning me.
A
Oh row my ship over the waves of your sea
E A
Let me find a safe port now and then
D A
Don't let the dark one in your sanctuary
B7 E
Until it's time to pack it in
E
O, row, row my ship
A
With the fire of your breath
E A
And don't lay a broadside on your ship as yet
D A
Blow ye warm winds When it's chilly and wet
B7 E E7
And don't come to soon For collecting my debt

O Life, you are a shining path.
D A
And hope springs eternal, just over the rise,

When I see my redeemer beckoning me.
