Take me in your lifeboat take me in your life boat
It will stand the raging storm
Take me in your lifeboat take me in your life boat
It will bear my spirit home
Now come brothers and sisters and don’t fall asleep
We’ll pray night and day or we’ll sink in the deep
Fathers and mothers are prayin’ so well
Then Lord won’t you take me in your lifeboat
The clouds are so heavy the winds are so loud
The thunder’s a-rollin’ and burstin’ in the clouds
They pray to their sinner mates for what they have done
They took the dyin’ sinner in their lifeboat
[1] Take me in your lifeboat [4] take me in your life [1] boat
It will stand the raging [5] storm
[1] Take me in your lifeboat [4] take me in your life [1] boat
It will bear my spirit [5] home [1]
Now come brothers and sisters and don’t fall asleep
We’ll pray night and day or we’ll sink in the deep
Fathers and mothers are prayin’ so well
Then Lord won’t you take me in your lifeboat
The clouds are so heavy the winds are so loud
The thunder’s a-rollin’ and burstin’ in the clouds
They pray to their sinner mates for what they have done
They took the dyin’ sinner in their lifeboat
