Footsteps on the sea, nets upon the sand
Seabirds flying free, the sower sows his land
I was only singing songs of billowed sails and sea
Mending nets on yellow sand when my brother said to me
See who walks the shore, yonder by the tree
One who walks so tall, a preacher-man is He
I was only singing songs of billowed sails and sea
Mending nets on yellow sand when He came up to me
Eyes that bore the sea, a thousand ages old
Fixed their gaze on me, a thousand tales were told
Later on the tide came in and washed my nets away
Shadows long heard a fisherman's song, but my bed it empty lay
Mmm, mmm, mmm, mmm, mmm Mmm, mmm, mmm, mmm, mmm
Mmm, mmm, mmm, mmm, mmm Mmm, mmm, mmm, mmm, mmm
I was only singing songs of billowed sails and sea
Mending nets on yellow sand when He said Follow Me
