Lyrics and Chords
[1] Out on the [5] perilous [1] deep Where [5] dangers silently [1] creeps And storms so violently [4] sweep You're [1] drifting too [5] far from the [1] shore
[4] Drifting too far from the [1] shore (from the shore) [5] You're drifting too far from the [1] shore (peaceful shore) Come to Jesus today let him show you the [4] way [1] You're drifting too [5] far from the [1] shore
Today the tempest rolls high And clouds overshadow the sky Sure death is hovering nigh You're drifting too far from the shore
Why meet a terrible fate When Jesus aboundantly waits Turn back before it's too late You're drifting too far from the shore
