Drifting Away from Jesus

Author: D. O. T. Hymnal: Timeless Truths #549 Meter: 7.6.7.6 D Lyrics: 1 Drifting away from Jesus, Far from His gentle fold, Wrecked on the waves of sorrow, Out in the night so cold. Refrain 1-3: Oh, am I lost forever? Lost amid fiendish din? Oh, can there be no lifeboat On the dark ocean of sin? 2 Drifting away from Jesus, Day after day I glide, Swiftly the billows bear me Over the surging tide. [Refrain] 3 Drifting away from Jesus, Helpless, and tossed with care; Soon I shall land forever Somewhere, I know not where. [Refrain] 4 Drifting away from Jesus, Far from His courts of love, Oh, do you see! A lifeboat Sails from the ports above! Refrain 4: Over the bounding billows, Jesus, my Savior, sends Help to my storm-tossed spirit; Praise to the Friend of friends!
