Drifting Too Far from the Shore
Hank Williams
Out on the perilous deep
Where danger silently creeps
And storm's so violently sweeping
You're drifting too far from shore
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
Today, the Tempest rose high
And clouds o'ershadow the sky
Sure death is hovering nigh
You're drifting too far from shore
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
Why meet a terrible fate?
Mercies abundantly wait
Turn back before it's too late
You're drifting too far from shore
Drifting too far from shore
You're drifting too far from shore (peaceful shore)
Come to Jesus today. Let him show you the way
You're drifting too far from shore
