<div class="lyrics">
<p>Adrift on the waters, so dark and so cold,<br>
Afar from the beautiful city of gold,<br>
A vessel is sinking, for heavy the gale,<br>
The cable is broken, and tattered each sail.</p>
<p class="refrain">Refrain</p>
<p class="refrain">Poor child of the wreck, see the lifeboat is near,<br>
A sweet voice is heard, for the Master is here;<br>
He walks every billow, controls every wave,<br>
&#8217;Tis Jesus, King Jesus, &#8220;the mighty to save.&#8221;</p>
<p>Oh, I was the sinner alone on the sea,<br>
But love&#8217;s blessed signal were floating for me;<br>
Though thunders were rolling, and billows at strife,<br>
Lo, Jesus was calling, &#8220;escape for thy life.&#8221;</p>
<p class="refrain">Refrain</p>
<p>I stepped in the life boat, provided for me,<br>
And Jesus my Pilot, my Captain to be;<br>
His bosom my refuge, my &#8220;haven of rest.&#8221;<br>
I&#8217;m rescued from shipwreck, so happy and blest.</p>
<p class="refrain">Refrain</p>
<p>Life&#8217;s turbulent surges are kissed into peace,<br>
The beacons are shining, and songs never cease;<br>
Fair moonbeams, bright sunshine illumine the tide,<br>
While onward to glory we&#8217;ll joyfully glide.</p>
<p class="refrain">Refrain</p>
