Sailing on a Pirate Ship

We're sailing on a pirate ship upon the ocean blue
We're seeking out God's treasures that are meant for me and you

We're sailing on a pirate ship upon the deep blue sea
God's treasures are for everyone, for him, and her, and me.

Avast! Ahoy! Avast! Ahoy! Avast! Ahoy! Me hearties, me hearties.
Avast! Ahoy! Avast! Ahoy! Avast! Ahoy! Me hearties, me hearties.
Yo ho, yo ho for him and her and me.

First mates! Arrr, matey.
Landlubbers! Arrr, matey.
Swabbies! Arrr, matey.
Scurvy dogs! Arrr, matey.
Scallywags! Arrr, matey.
Bilge Rats! Arrr, matey.
Everyone! And louder! Arrr, matey.

We're sailing on a pirate ship upon the ocean wave
And when we ask the Lord to help, His treasures they can save

We're sailing on a pirate ship and before this day is done
We'll find out some new truths of God, the adventure's lots of fun.

Avast! Ahoy! Avast! Ahoy! Avast! Ahoy! Me hearties, me hearties.
Avast! Ahoy! Avast! Ahoy! Avast! Ahoy! Me hearties, me hearties.
Yo ho, yo ho, the adventure's lots of fun.
Yo ho, yo ho, God's treasure's for everyone.
