Who, today, will take the Life-Boat? With the Spirit as the oar, Who’ll go quickly to the rescue, Bring them safely to the shore?

See, the darkness gathers ‘round them, And the waves are rolling high; Who will take to them the Life-boat? Who’ll help save them ere they die?

Chorus

Who, today, will take the Life-Boat? With the Spirit as the oar, Who’ll go quickly to the rescue, Bring them safely to the shore?

Verse 3

Who will join the crew of rescue, Grasp with steady hand the oar, Take to them the only Life-boat, That will land them safe on shore?

Chorus

Who, today, will take the Life-Boat? With the Spirit as the oar, Who’ll go quickly to the rescue, Bring them safely to the shore?
