Bill Monroe You`re Drifting Away Lyrics

You`re Drifting Away Lyrics

All your life you've lived a sinner the bright way you've never trod

You're drifting away, you're drifting away

When you come to cross the river and you haven't met with God

You're drifting away, you're drifting away



You're drifting away, you're drifting away

On down the dark river I'm sorry to say

You're drifting away, you're drifting away

Don't wait too long to let Jesus hear you pray



You won't give up your earthly treasures to enter the promised land

You're drifting away, you're drifting away

You can hear Jesus callin' but you won't accept his hand

You're drifting away, you're drifting away



You're drifting away, you're drifting away

On down the dark river I'm sorry to say

You're drifting away, you're drifting away

Don't wait too long to let Jesus hear you pray



When you come to cross the river Jesus won't give the command

You're drifting away, you're drifting away

And that dark rollin' river takes you to the sinkin' sand

You're drifting away, you're drifting away



You're drifting away, you're drifting away

On down the dark river I'm sorry to say

You're drifting away, you're drifting away

Don't wait too long to let Jesus hear you pray
