Casting Nets into Other Seas – v3

Were they watching the shore
or were they watching His face
as He preached to the crowd
from the Sea that day;
Did they understand His call
His words to them
those on the shore
hearing Him preach that day

Casting nets into other seas
the land their waters now;
Fishing for men upon the shore
catching their hearts with His words

Leaving the sea, their way of life
all that they had known
going when the Master called;
Walking away from family, their boats
leaving all behind on the shore
going where the Master called
out into the world
