Lyrics:

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
