Drifting Away From Jesus,
Far From His Gentle Fold,
Wrecked On The Waves Of Sorrow,
Out In The Night So Cold.

Oh, Am I Lost Forever?
Lost Amid Fiendish Din?
Oh, Can There Be No Lifeboat
On The Dark Ocean Of Sin?

Drifting Away From Jesus,
Day After Day I Glide,
Swiftly The Billows Bear Me
Over The Surging Tide.

Drifting Away From Jesus,
Helpless, And Tossed With Care;
Soon I Shall Land Forever
Somewhere, I Know Not Where.

Drifting Away From Jesus,
Far From His Courts Of Love,
Oh, Do You See! A Lifeboat
Sails From The Ports Above!

Over The Bounding Billows,
Jesus, My Savior, Sends
Help To My Storm-Tossed Spirit;
Praise To The Friend Of Friends!
