A large crowd gathering – v2

In the boat with Jesus
watching them coming
the crowds, the people
as we crossed the waters
a familiar sight now, often
wherever we went, the crowds
When the people saw Jesus
they came running, seeking
bearing the sick, the lame
eager for his healing
for his teaching of the word
A large crowd gathering
faster, faster, waiting
on the shore, the hillside
waiting for his teaching
No rest for Jesus, for us
the shepherd soon preaching
sharing God’s love
for all of God’s children
