Verse 1:
D      A7                      D         D7
Jesus,    you have come to the Lakeshore,
        G                          A         A7
looking neither    for wealthy nor wise ones.

You only asked me     to follow humbly.

O Jesus,    with your eyes you have searched me,
          Em        A7                D    D7
and while smiling,     have spoken my name.
       G                    Em          D       D7
Now my boats left    on the shoreline behind me,
        Em     A7                   D
By your side,     I will seek other seas.

By your side,     I will seek other seas.

Verse 3:
D         A7                   D      D7
You need      my hands full of caring,

Now my boats left    on the shoreline behind me,

By your side,     I will seek other seas.

Verse 4:
D     A7                       D      D7
You,     who have fished other oceans,
     G                               A       A7
ever longed for     by souls who are waiting,

my loving-friend,     as thus you call me.

and while smiling,     have spoken my name.
       G                    Em          D       D7
Now my boats left    on the shoreline behind me,
