Out onto the Waters (2) - Poem by Raymond A. Foss

Their fishing boats
a floating synagogue
a pulpit for Christ
out onto the waters they went

Tired from the night
longing for sleep
but when he said go, they went

At his feet, hearing his words
to the crowd there on the shore
hope for the people
so much more
than what they had ever heard

Out to deeper waters
at the command of the Lord
reaping a harvest indeed
But the catch left there on the shore
when the master said,
come, follow me.
