Out on the perilous deep Where dangers silently creep And storms so violently sweep You're drifting to far from the shore Drifting too far from the shore (from the shore) You're drifting to far from the shore Today the tempest rolls high
And clouds overshadow the sky Sure d**h is hovering nigh You're drifting to far from the shore Why meet a terrible fate Mercy abundantly waits Turn back before its to late You're drifting to far from the shore
