Fisher Of Men

I’m a “Fisher Of Men”



When Satan lures me away
Set your hook deep in me
Reeling my attention
Toward eternity



When depression drifts in
While hope sinks below
Let me “count it all joy”
As it’s time to grow


When the storms of life
Cast its nets again
Lord help me remember
I am a “fisher of men”



When my burden is heavy
From hurt deep inside
Let me wade in your love
Till pain does subside



When I am feeling all-alone
Let me feel your wake
In calmest, still waters
As they gently break

When my boat appears empty
Let the tournament begin
Lord help me remember
I am a “fisher of men”



Stephen Boan
