God Moves on the Water Songtext
von Kimber’s Men

God moves on the water
April the fourteenth day
God moves on the water
Everybody gonna run and pray

Titanic left Southampton
Everybody was bright and gay
But when they hit that iceberg
Well I know their lives was changed

God moves on the water
April the fourteenth day
God moves on the water
Everybody gonna run and pray

Well mothers told their daughters
On a pleasure trip they go
But when they struck that iceberg
They don′t see them no more


God moves on the water
April the fourteenth day
God moves on the water
Everybody gonna run and pray

The were warned by a freight boat
Captain Smith would not take heed
He would not hear that wire, man,
And they run with the greatest speed

God moves on the water
April the fourteenth day
God moves on the water
Everybody gonna run and pray

One man John Jacob Ashton
Was a man so bold and brave
As that great boat was sinking
All the women he's trying to save

God moves on the water
April the fourteenth day
God moves on the water
Everybody gonna run and pray


Well he kissed his wife the last time
The boiler did explode
He put her on the lifeboat
Said ′I won't see you no more'

God moves on the water
April the fourteenth day
God moves on the water
Everybody gonna run and pray

Well that fourteenth day of April
Nineteen hundred and twelve
One thousand and six hundred
Went down forever to dwell

God moves on the water
April the fourteenth day
God moves on the water
Everybody gonna run and pray
