lirik lagu don francisco - voyage to gennesaret
eleven men besides myself in a boat both small and
light
pushed off for gennesaret in the first watch of the
night
a storm blew up at midnight coming hard down on the
prow
we started losing headway shipping water stem and bow
when someone shouted loud, “hey, look to starboard on
the sea!”
the men screamed out in terror at the form we all could
see
a man was walking on the water, and we trembled, cried
and prayed
till he stopped and turned and spoke to us, “it is i,
don’t be afraid.”
i shouted out to jesus, “if it’s you, then call to me,
and tell me how to come to you and walk across the
sea.”
without a second’s thought he looked at me and
answered, “come!”
my insides turned to water and my mind went blank and
numb.
i climbed across the gunwhale looking straight into his
eyes
but long before i reached his side, the wind began to
rise
i forgot him in an instant and i sank just like a stone
i cried out, “jesus save me!” and his hand was on my
own.
“oh man of little faith,” he said, “what made you doubt
my word.
have you been this long with me without knowing what
you’ve heard?”
we climbed into the boat and all at once the wind was
gone
the sea turned calm and gentle and the day began to
dawn.
we knelt amazed and worshipped him for the power he
displayed
for all that we had seen had left us wondering and
dismayed
it was not till after pentecost i could really
understand
but even when i doubted him, he did not let go my hand.
