Hymn 772: Throw out the Life-Line across the dark wave

Also listed as SS&S 772 • SSS 772 • SS and S 772 • Sacred Songs 772

Throw out the Life-Line across the dark wave, There is a brother whom someone should save ; Somebody's brother ! oh, who then will dare To throw out the Life-Line, his peril to share ?

Throw out the Life- Line ! Throw out the Life-Line ! Someone is drifting away ! Throw out the Life-Line i Throw out the Life-Line ! Someone is sinking to-day.

2 Throw out the Life-Line with hand quick and strong : Why do you tarry, my brother, so long ? See — he is sinking; oh, hasten today---- And out with the Life-Boat ! away then, away !

3. Throw out the Life-Line 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.

4. Soon will the season of rescue be o'er, Soon will they drift to eternity's shore, Haste then, my brother ! no time for delay, But throw out the Life-Line, and save them to-day.
