I Corinthians 1555

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

CHORUS:
A
O Death, where is thy sting?
E         E7           D  E A
O Grave, 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.


VERSE:
A
Oh row my ship over the waves of 
your sea
        E                        A
Let me find a safe port now and then
       D                      
Don't let the dark one in your 
  A
sanctuary
   B                       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
Continues after the ad
D
Blow ye warm winds
           A
When it's chilly and wet
     B
And don't come to soon
        E               E7
For collecting my debt


CHORUS:
A
O Death, where is thy sting?
E         E7           D  E A
O Grave, 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   
When I see my redeemer beckoning 
A    D  A   E  D E A
me.


VERSE:
A
Oh let me sail on

With my ship to the East
     E                        A
And keep my eye on the North Star
          D                      A
When the journey is no good for man 
or for beast
      B                    E
I'll be safe wherever you are
 E                          A
Just let me sail into your harbor of
 lights
     E                    A
And there and forever to cast out my
 light
  D
Give me my task
        A
And let me do it right
    B                     E    E7
And do it with all of my might


CHORUS:
A
O Death, where is thy sting?
E         E7           D  E A
O Grave, 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   
When I see my redeemer beckoning 
A    D  A   E  D E A  D E A  D E A
me.
