[Verse 1]
Out on the perilous deep
Where danger silently creeps
And storm's so violently sweeping
You're drifting too far from shore

[Chorus]
Drifting too far from shore
You're drifting too far from shore
Come to Jesus today
Let Him show you the way
You're drifting too far from shore

[Verse 2]
Today, the Tempest rose high
And clouds overshadow the sky
Sure death is hovering nigh
You're drifting too far from shore

[Chorus]

[Verse 3]
Why meet a terrible fate?
Mercies abundantly wait
Turn back before it's too late
You're drifting too far from shore
[Chorus]
