Lyrics Drifting Too Far from the Shore - Bill Monroe

Out on the perilous deep
Where dangers silently creep
And storms so violently sweep
You're drifting too far from the shore

Drifting too far from the shore (from the shore)
You're drifting too far from the shore (peaceful shore)
Come to Jesus today, let him show you the way
You're drifting too far from the shore

Today the tempest rolls high
And clouds overshadow the sky
Sure death is hovering nigh
You're drifting too far from the shore

Drifting too far from the shore (from the shore)
You're drifting too far from the shore (peaceful shore)
Come to Jesus today, let him show you the way
You're drifting too far from the shore

Why meet a terrible fate?
Mercy abundantly waits
Turn back before its too late
You're drifting too far from the shore

Drifting too far from the shore (from the shore)
You're drifting too far from the shore (peaceful shore)
Come to Jesus today, let him show you the way
You're drifting too far from the shore
