Long long ago He saidA
He who could wake the deadA
And walk upon the seaB
-
'Come follow MeB
-
-
Leave your brown nets and bringC
Only your hearts to singC
Only your souls to prayD
Rise come awayD
-
Shake out your spirit sailsE
And brave those wilder galesE
And I will make you thenF
Fishers of men '-
-
Was this then what He meantG
Was this His high intentG
After two thousand yearsH
Of blood and tearsI
-
God help us if we fightJ
For right and not for mightJ
God help us if we seekK
To shield the weakK
-
Then though His heaven be farL
From this blind welter of warM
He'll bless us on the seaB
From CalvaryB
