A "Warm-N-Cozy" Greeting


As Jesus walked beside the sea
He called to fishermen of Galilee
Immediately they obeyed His call
Turned from the fishing and left it all

Not learned men of many books
Knowing more of nets and hooks
They did not wait to understand
Enough to know who made the command

Enough to trust His holy name
With faith in Him they willingly came
Just to take Him at His word
They did not reason but obeyed the Lord

They did not doubt who made the earth
Give sun and moon and stars their birth
Who formed the clouds; caused wind to blow
And sent the rain to water ground below

A hundred questions they did not ask
To quiz the Lord and take Him to task
They did not say; we must know it all
Before we will follow and obey your call

They did not stop to converse
Debate the mysteries of the universe
They left the fishing and the sea
When the Master called; come follow me

They did not take ages to decide
Quickly they came to the Saviour's side
Left it not to understanding of their own
But they came to Jesus in faith alone

When He calls come; do not hesitate
Do not question; wonder and debate
Some day much clearer we all will see
But just for now obey His; follow me
