Take Me In Your Lifeboat Lyrics - Flatt And Scruggs

Take me in the lifeboat, take me in the lifeboat 

It will stand the raging storm 

Take me in the lifeboat, take me in the lifeboat 

It will bear my spirit home 

Now, come brothers and sisters and don't fall asleep 

But pray night and day or you'll sink in the deep 

Fathers and mothers are praying so loud 

Saying Lord won't you take us in your lifeboat? 

Take me in the lifeboat, take me in the lifeboat 

It will stand the raging storm 

Take me in the lifeboat, take me in the lifeboat 

It will bear my spirit home 

The clouds are so heavy, the winds are so loud 

The thunders are rolling, bursting the clouds 

They prayed to their ship mates for what they had done 

They took the dying Savior in their lifeboat
