Poetry
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”
