Fishermen<\/h3>\n

Peter, James, and John,
\njust to name a few;
\nFishermen, already there,
\nwho wait to welcome you.<\/p>\n

Though nets may be their tackle,
\nA far cry from a reel,
\nThey smelled each day the rich lake air,
\nAnd knew the wind by feel.<\/p>\n

They met a Savior on the bank
\nand followed when he called.
\nThey dropped and left their nets behind,
\nTo fish for wayward souls.<\/p>\n

You\u2019ve followed the same Savior.
\nHe bought you with His blood.
\nHis Word has been the well-worn map
\nThat brought you safely home.<\/p>\n
