Sinking Down

There’s a bro­ther sink­ing down tod­ay;

Will you lend to him a help­ing hand?

He is drift­ing

drift­ing far away

And his feet are on the sink­ing sand.

Sinking down

sink­ing down

There’s a bro­ther sink­ing down to­day;

Sinking down

sink­ing down

There’s a bro­ther drift­ing far away.

Many souls are sink­ing down to­day

That have nev­er heard a Christ­ian pray;

Can you speak to them a word of cheer

To bring com­fort to the sin­ner’s ear?

There are brok­en hearts so sad to­night

That are lost from Je­sus and the light;

They are drift­ing far away from shore

Where they will be lost for ev­er­more.
