Drifting Away

Author: W. C. McConnell Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #8292 First Line: Drifting away from God today Refrain First Line: Drifting away, drifting away Lyrics: 1 Drifting away from God today, Out in the world to roam; How sad the heart will ever be, The heart that once was pure and free, But wandering now alone. Refrain: Drifting away, drifting away, Drifting, yes, drifting away, Drifting away, away from God. 2 Drifting away from God today, From mother, home and friend, Thro’ stormy winds that blast and blight; O’er desert sands and mountain height, Unto a bitter end. [Refrain] 3 Drifting away from God today, Far o’er the sea of sin; Oh! who will guide your footsteps sure, And who will make your soul secure? ’Tis God who dwells within. [Refrain] Languages: English Tune Title: [Drifting away from God today]
