Throw Out the Lifeline

1. Throw out the life-line a-cross the dard wave, There is a broth-er whom some one should save, Some-bod-y's broth-er!oh, who, then will dare To throw out the Life-line, his per-il to share? Chorus: Throw out the Life-line! Throw out the Life-Line! Some-one is drift-ing a -way; Throw out the Life-line! Throw out the Life-line some one is sink-ing to-day. 2. Throw out the Life-Line with hand quick and strong; Why do you tar-ry, why lin-ger so long? See! he is sink-ing oh, has-ten to-day And out with the Life-Boar! a-way, then, a-way! 3. Throw out the Life-line to dan-ger fraught men, Sink-ing in an-guish where you've nev-er been; Winds of tem-ta-tion and bil-lows of woe Will soon hurl them out where the dark wa-ters flow. Chorus: Throw out the Life-line! Throw out the Life-Line! Some-one is drift-ing a-way; Throw out the Life-line! Throw out the Life-line! some one is sink-ing to-day. 4. Soon will the sea-son of res-cue be o'er, soon will they drift to e-ter-ni-ty's shore; Haste then, my brother, no time for de-lay, But throw out the Life-line and save them to-day.
