To Reach the World

To reach the world...
Is it really true?
The door has opened...
I may catch a few!

My line is out,
I know how to fish.
The Lord is granting
my one true wish!

Not only in my pond,
But, other ones too.
I only dreamed...
but, He knew.

An answer to prayer
has just occurred.
Greater opportunity
to share His Word.

To share the Lord’s
great love for me,
But, extend the invitation
for ALL to see.

I’m sooo thankful, Lord!
All I wanted to do
Was to have the chance
To bring lost souls to You.

Let’s populate Heaven
from all points on earth!
Explain the effects
of Your Son, Jesus’ birth.

Tell of his miracles,
His love for all,
His death—to cover
the mess from the fall.

His resurrection...
Death lost its sting! ¹
Now everyone lives
Who believes in the King! ²

Forgiveness, family,
friendship with God! ³
So much to be gained.
Let the saints applaud!

Let’s follow the Lord...
reel-in nine thousand ten
more “fish” for our God,
from His “fishers of men.” ⁴
