God Moves On the Water

Ah, Lord, ah, Lord
 Year of nineteen hundred and twelve, April the fourteenth day
 Great Titanic struck an iceberg, people had to run and pray
 God moves, moves, God moves, ah, and the people had to run and pray
 The guards who had been a-watching, asleep 'cause they were tired
 When they heard the great excitement, then a gunshot was fired
 God moves, moves, God moves, ah, and the people had to run and pray
 Captain Smith gave orders, women and children first
 Many of the lifeboats piled right up, many were liable to crush
 God moves on, God moves, God moves, ah, and the people had to run and pray
 Ahh-ah
 So many had to leave their happy home, all that they possess
 Lord Jesus, will you hear us now, help us in our distress
 God moves, God moves, God moves, ah, people had to run and pray
 Women had to leave their loving ones, see 'bout their safety
 When they heard the liner was doomed, hearts did almost break
 God moves, God moves, God moves, ah, and the people had to run and pray
 A.G. Smith, mighty man, built a boat that he couldn't understand
 Named it a name of God in a tin, without a &quotc", Lord, he pulled it in
 God moves, ah, God moves, God moves, ah, and the people had to run and pray
 (spoken: Well) Ahh, ah, Lord
