272 Throw Out The Lifeline. | Christ In Song Hymnal

272 Throw Out The Lifeline.

Throw out the lifeline across the dark wave,
There is a brother whom someone should save;
Somebody’s brother! Oh, who then will dare,
To throw out the lifeline, his peril to share?

CHORUS
Throw out the lifeline! Throw out the lifeline!
Someone is drifting away! Throw out the lifeline!
Throw out the lifeline! Someone is sinking today.

Throw out the lifeline with hand quick and strong;
Why do you tarry, why linger so long?
See! He is sinking; oh, hasten today,
And out with the life boat! Away, then, away!

Throw out the lifeline to danger-fraught men,
Sinking in anguish where you’ve never been;
Winds of temptation and billows of woe,
Will soon hurl them out where the dark waters flow.

Soon will the season of rescuer be o’er,
Soon will they drift to eternity’s shore;
Haste, then, my brother, no time for delay,
But throw out the lifeline and save them today.
