Throw Out The Lifeline


   3   5   5    5   -4
Throw out the life-line 

4  -4    5   -5    5
a-cross the dark wave

  6   -6 6   6   5
There is a broth-er 

  5    5  -4     4    -4
whom some-one should save,

  3   5   5    5   -4
Some-bod-y's broth-er!

 4  -4    5   -5    5
Oh, who then will dare 

 5    6  -6   6    6    5
to throw out the life-line, 

 4  -4  4  -3   4
his per-il to share?

chorus

   6   6   6   -6    6
Throw out the life-line! 

   5   5   5   -5    5
Throw out the life-line!

 -4  -4  -4  -4    4 -4 5  6
Some-one is drift-ing a-w-ay.

   6   6   6   -6    6
Throw out the life-line! 

  5    5   5   -5   5
Throw out the life-line!

 -6  -6  -6   6   5  -4  4
Some-one is sink-ing to-day.


Throw out the lifeline with hand quick and strong.
Why do you tarry, why linger so long?
See! he is sinking, Oh, hasten today
And out with the lifeboat! Away, then away.

Throw out the lifeline 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.

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 lifeline and save them today.
