All your life you've lived a sinner the bright way you've never trod
|
You're drifting away you're drifting away
|
When you come to cross the river and you haven't met with God
|
You're drifting away you're drifting away
|
|
You're drifting away you're drifting away
|
On down the dark river I'm sorry to say
|
You're drifting away you're drifting away
|
Don't wait too long to let Jesus hear you pray
|
|
You won't give up your earthly treasures to enter the promised land
|
You're drifting away you're drifting away
|
You can hear Jesus callin' and you won't accept His hand
|
You're drifting away you're drifting away
|
|
When you come to the river Jesus don't give thee command
|
You're drifting away you're drifting away
|
And the dark rollin' river takes you to the sinkin' sand
|
You're drifting away you're drifting away
|
|

You're Drifting Away
