That Old Ship of Zion

Writer's picture: Church on the Hill UCCChurch on the Hill UCC

I've often felt like I'm at the prow of a ship when I'm standing in the pulpit trying to do justice to the gospel. On Friday evening, June 21, I was waiting for a wedding rehearsal to begin, the party to arrive.


A storm came first.



It brought to mind the old spiritual, "The Old Ship of Zion," about the church.


'Tis the old ship of Zion,

'tis the old ship of Zion.

'Tis the old ship of Zion:

get on board! Get on board!
