Composer: | Fred L. Beard |

1 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.
Refrain:
Sinking down, sinking down,
There’s a brother sinking down today;
Sinking down, sinking down,
There’s a brother drifting far away.
2 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? [Refrain]
3 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. [Refrain]
