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                        A
Don't let the dark one in your 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

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   A    D  A   E  D E A 
When I see my redeemer beckoning 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   A    D  A   E  D E A  D E A  D E A
When I see my redeemer beckoning me.
