Текст песни Down With the Old Canoe - Charlie Louvin

It was ninety six years ago
When the wings of death came low
And spread out on the ocean far and wide
A great ship sailed away, with her passengers so gay
Don't ever, never reach the other side

This great ship was built by man
This is why she could not stand
"She could not sink" was the cry from one and all
But an iceberg ripped her side and cut down all her pride
They found the hand of God was in it all

Sailing out out to win her fame, the Titanic was her name
When she had sailed five hundred mile from shore
Many passengers and the crew went down with that old canoe
They all went down to never rise again

Your Titanic sails today, on life's sea you're far away
For Jesus Christ can take you safely through
Just to obey His great command, over there you'll safely land
You'll never go down with that old canoe

When you think that you are wise
Then you need not be surprised
That the hand of God should stop you on life's sea
If you go on in your sin, you will find out in the end
That you are just as foolish as can be

Sailing out out to win her fame, the Titanic was her name
When she had sailed five hundred miles from shore
Many passengers and the crew went down with that old canoe
They all went down to never rise again
They all went down to never rise again
