Representative Text

1 Mariner out on life’s ocean,
Deep, far and wide!
Mariner look! you are drifting,
Drifting along with the tide!

Refrain:
Drifting, drifting.
Drifting along with the tide;
Why not let Christ be your pilot?
He will guide.

2 Mariner, billows are surging
Out in the deep!
Mariner see! there is danger!
Mariner wake from your sleep! [Refrain]

3 Mariner, yonder the haven,
Home, home, sweet home!
Mariner hark! loving voices
Tenderly calling you, “Come.” [Refrain]
