Before the world was drenched in shame <br />Ere Satan reigned in man <br />The Father Son and Holy Flame <br />Wrote down salvation’s plan <br /> <br />Then God told man to build a boat <br />In faith to walk inside <br />But only eight were kept afloat <br />All unbelievers died <br /> <br />“I thank You Lord for saving me <br />For I was drowning too <br />From certain death You’ve set me free <br />And gave me life anew <br /> <br />Allow me in Your boat to sail <br />I’ve heard my Saviour’s call <br />In Christ I know I’ll never fail <br />Nor from Your grace will fall <br /> <br />I long to be a lifeboat Lord <br />Returning to the sea <br />Calling Your fish to climb on board <br />As Jesus did for me <br /> <br />With Christ I’ll sail to far off shores <br />In truth from port to port <br />We’ll free the catch from Satan’s claws <br />We’ll fish till all are caught <br /> <br />The wind is right the course is set <br />My Lord is at the helm <br />Let’s hoist the sail cast wide the net <br />Let’s fish throughout Your realm <br /> <br />Let’s cast our nets in every land <br />Let’s sail in one accord <br />Let’s teach the fish to understand <br />How safe is life on board.<br /><br />Michael P.
