The Fisherman - Mason Jennings

Early morning

Teacher talking to five thousand by the lake

All day long 'til his disciples

Told him «Master, it’s getting late

How you gonna feed them?

How you gonna keep them?

Whatcha gonna give when there’s nothing to give?»

He said, «I am the Fisherman

I fish for hearts of men

And if you come to me

You’ll find everlasting peace

I see no difference

All are one as God’s children

I am the Fisherman…»

Early morning

Millions waking in the cities of the Earth

I wake with a worried feeling

So much fighting, what’s it worth?

How’m I gonna love them?

How’m I gonna trust them?

How’m I gonna live in this world as one?

He said, «I am the Fisherman

I fish for hearts of men

And if you come to me

You’ll find everlasting peace

I see no difference

All are one as God’s children

I am the Fisherman…»

Sunday morning

I am waking from the prison of my birth

I wake with a joyful feeling

I am learning what it’s worth

Learning to change things

By changing our heart

Learning that love is the place to start

He said, «I am the Fisherman

I fish for hearts of men

And if you come to me

You’ll find everlasting peace

I see no difference

All are one as God’s children

I am the Fisherman…»
