Keep your lure in the water, don't just sit by the shore
there are souls to be caught, everywhere in this old world
Keep your lure in the water, in the waters of life
The Lord said, "Simon, haul your nets in
From now on you're a fisher of men"
Well I like fishin',that's why it caught my ear
The Lord knew how to get to me and what I'd need to hear
Keep your lure in the water, don't just sit by the shore
There are souls to be caught, everywhere in this old world
Keep your lure in the water, in the waters of life
When the sea is troubled and it's hard to stay afloat
And you feel like Jesus is sleeping in the boat
Don't you dare give up on the Prince of Peace
And in the middle of the storm
You will find a sweet release
Keep your lure in the water, don't just sit by the shore
There are souls to be caught, everywhere in this old world
Keep your lure in the water, in the waters of life. Yeah,
Keep your lure in the water, don't just sit by the shore
There are souls to be caught, everywhere in this old world
Keep your lure in the water, in the waters of life
Yeah keep your lure in the water, in the waters of life
