Voice of Jesus

On Capernaum’s distant shore
There came a voice so sweet and low
Calling gently in the morning breeze
To the fishermen upon the seas
Saying, "Come leave your nets and leave boats,
Follow me!"
It was the voice of Jesus

It was 2 thousand years ago
But still the voice is as before
Calling out from that awful tree
Where he bled and died for you me
Saying, "Come leave your burdens,
Follow me!"
It was the voice of Jesus

And still that voice will ever be
Echoing eternally
Calling gently out to all mankind
Spreading hope and joy and peace of mind,
Saying, "Come! I Love You
Take your Cross, Follow me."
It is the voice of Jesus
