Author: Ralph S. Tinsman Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #2505 First Line: Out on the perilous sea of life Refrain First Line: Hold it fast while the waves roll high Lyrics: 1. Out on the perilous sea of life, Some one is drifting away tonight; Out in the darkness, where the storm rages wild, Throw out the life-line to some mother’s child. Refrain Hold it fast while the waves roll high, Jesus will rescue you by and by. Saved at last, what a joy to know, Take hold of the life-line, and never let go. 2. Farther and farther they drift each day, Resting their oars on the ocean’s white spray, Dreaming of pleasure without alloy. Throw out the life-line to some mother’s boy. [Refrain] 3. Quick to the rescue while yet you may, Succor the perishing, save one today; Tell them of Jesus who came to save. He that believeth salvation may have. [Refrain] 4. Now I surrender my all to Him, Jesus has rescued and saved me from sin; Beautiful visions burst on my sight, Glory to Jesus, I’m saved tonight. Refrain Holding fast while the waves roll high, Jesus has rescued me, this my cry. Saved I am, what a joy to know; I’m holding the life-line, I’ll never let go.
