Paul and the Shipwreck
(Sung to the tune of Gilligan's
Island)
Just sit right back and you'll hear a
tale
A tale of a fateful trip
No, it's not the one you're thinking of
It was a totally different ship ... a totally different
ship
Well, Paul set sail from the shore one
day
A prisoner bound in chains
To Rome he'd go before Caesar he'd stand
God's doctrine to proclaim ... God's doctrine to
proclaim
A wind of hurricane force swept down
For fourteen days it raged
"Fear not," said Paul to the prisoners and crew
"You shall all be saved"... You shall all be
saved
Just before dawn on the fourteenth
day
All were still alive
Paul said to them, "Take some food,"
"You need it to survive"... You need it to
survive
When daylight came the ship ran
aground
They couldn't take much more
But all reached land safe and sound
Rescued by the Lord ... They were rescued by the
Lord
Paul made it to Rome and began to
preach
Forever in custody
He fought the good fight, he finished the race
His faith had set him free His faith had set him
free
So join us here each week my friends
More tales of faith you'll hear
Like NOOOOAH
And Abraham
The disciples and Moses, too
And remember that ... through every trial
God is there for you
