Lord, you have come to the seashore,
neither searching for the rich nor the wise,
desiring only that I should follow.

Refrain
O, Lord, with your eyes set upon me,
gently smiling, you have spoken my name;
all I longed for I have found by the water,
at your side, I will seek other shores.

Lord, see my goods, my possessions;
in my boat you find no power, no wealth.
Will you accept, then, my nets and labor?

Lord, take my hands and direct them.
Help me spend myself in seeking the lost,
returning love for the love you gave me.

Lord, as I drift on the waters,
be the resting place of my restless heart,
my life's companion, my friend and refuge.

So beautiful.

Lord, you have come to the seashore, neither searching for the rich nor the wise,

desiring only that I should follow.

O, Lord, with your eyes set upon me, gently smiling, you have spoken my name;

all I longed for I have found by the water, at your side, I will seek other shores.

Lord, as I drift on the waters,

be the resting place of my restless heart,

my life's companion, my friend and refuge.

I heard this song on the radio for the first time today and it inspired me to find more about it. I love this version because of the beautiful pictures as well as the musical setting. Wonderful.

Beautiful song, I'm only 6 years old and I play it in violin, search my video by ESTEFANIA SALAZAR MARTRUS

Brought a tear to my eye! Does anybody know the connection with Pope John Paul II? Allegedly it was a favourite hymn of his (no wonder!). Others say that he actually wrote it. I'd love to know.

This was played for my Grandma's Funeral in Spanish. Very Beautiful. The title in Spanish is Pescador de Hombres, which translates into Fisher of Men.

Wonderful theology and tune! The harmony, especially, is unique (and beautiful), compared to other "YouTube" renditions. Inspiring.
