Put out into the deep and let down your nets for a catch.
~ Luke 5:4
♫
Master, we've been out all night, casting in the deep;
The sea was rough, the work was hard, we haven't got much sleep.
We've come back empty-handed, all cold and sopping wet;
The last thing that we want to hear is, "Men, let down your net!"
♫
At times today, we're up all night, and worry's got us canned.
When life is rough and times are hard, we plead and plot and plan.
We come up empty-handed, because we do forget
Our Lord and Master stands on shore and calls,
"Let down your net!"
♫
Let down your net - just one more time.
Cast all your fear and worry with the line.
Let down your net, just trust in Me;
Open up your heart, and receive!
♫
