Throw out the life line across the dark wave;There is a brother whom someone should save;Somebody's brother! O who then will dareTo throw out the life line, his peril to share?Throw out the life line! Throw out the life line!Someone is drifting away;Throw out the life line! Throw out the life line!Someone is sinking today.Throw out the life line with hand quick and strong:Why do you tarry, why linger so long?See! he is sinking; oh, hasten todayAnd out with the life boat! away, then away!Throw out the life line to danger fraught men,Sinking in anguish where you've never been;Winds of temptation and billows of woeWill soon hurl them out where the dark waters flow.Soon will the season of rescue be o'er,Soon will they drift to eternity's shore;Haste, then, my brother, no time for delay,But throw out the life line and save them today.This is the life line, oh, tempest tossed men;SongtexteBaffled by waves of temptation and sin;Wild winds of passion, your strength cannot brave,But Jesus is mighty, and Jesus can save.Jesus is able! To you who are driv'n,Farther and farther from God and from Heav'n;Helpless and hopeless, o'erwhelmed by the wave;We throw out the life line, 'tis 'Jesus can save.'This is the life line, oh, grasp it today!See, you are recklessly drifting away;Voices in warning, shout over the wave,O grasp the strong life line, for Jesus can save.
