Out on the perilous deep
Where danger silently creeps
And storms so violently sweep
You're drifting too far from the shore
CHORUS:
Drifting too far from the shore
You're drifting too far from the shore
Come to Jesus today, let him show you the way
You're drifting too far from the shore
Today the tempest rose high
And the clouds overshadow the sky
Sure death is hovering nigh
You're drifting too far from the shore
CHORUS
Why meet a terrible fate
Mercies abundantly wait
Turn back before it's too late
You're drifting too far from the shore
CHORUS
