LYRICS

Lord, You have come to the seashore
Neither searching for the rich nor the wise.
Desiring only that I should follow.

REFRAIN

O Lord, with Your eyes set upon me
Gently smiling, You have spoken my name.
All I longed for, I have found by the water.
At Your side, I will seek other shores.

Lord, see my goods, my possessions.
In my boat You find no power, no wealth.
Will You accept then my nets and labor?

REFRAIN

Lord take my hands and direct them.
Help me spend myself in seeking the lost.
Returning love for the love You gave me.

REFRAIN
Lord, as I drift on the waters
Be the resting place of my restless heart.
My life's companion, my friend and refuge.

REFRAIN
