Drifting Away from God (Simpkins)

Drifting away from the Sav­ior

Drifting to lands un­known

Drifting away by night and by day

Drifting

yes

drift­ing alone.

Drifting away from the Sav­ior

Drifting away from His love

While the Sav­ior is ten­der­ly call­ing

You are drift­ing away from God.

Drifting away from the Sav­ior

He who would bear your load;

Drifting away by night and by day

Drifting

yes

drift­ing from God.

Drifting away from the Sav­ior

Fearlessly on you go;

Drifting away by night and by day

Drifting to re­gions of woe.

Drifting away from the Sav­ior

Even the an­gels weep;

Still you drift on with mirth and with song

Out on the fa­thom­less deep.
