I need, for a friend, both verses and music for a hymn or gospel song "The Old Ship of Zion". The title is all I have.

This may be what you are looking for.

THE OLD SHIP OF ZION

What ship is this that will take us all home?
O Glory hallelujah!
And safely land us on Canaan's bright shore?
O glory hallelujah!

CHORUS: 'Tis the old ship of Zion hallelu, hallelu,
"Tis the old ship of Zion hallelujah!

The winds may blow and the billows foam,
O glory hallelujah!
But she is able to land us all home.
O Glory hallelujah!

She's landed all who've gone before,
O glory hallelujah!
And yet she's able to land still more.
O glory hallelujah!

If I arrive before you do,
O glory hallelujah!
I'll tell them that you are coming too.
O glory hallelujah!
