Fishin the Day Away

Parody Lyrics by Randall Hyde

Way out on this big lake
I'm fishin' for Christ's sake
Every last person, well that is my goal
Spreading the Good News
I hope they don't refuse
Telling the lost: "just give Christ control"

Chorus:
Fishin' the day away 'cause Jesus told me to
Searching for that unsaven poor soul
Some people claim that they are here without blame
But I know, He can make them whole


I take lots of teasin'
Whatever the reason,
Nothing can stop me from talking to you
Christ gave me a mission
Called the great commission
Mark 16:15 says what I should do

[chorus]

[instrumental]

In 4:19 Matthew,
To Peter and Andrew
Jesus suggested that they follow him
"So put down your fishnet,
although we have just met,
I promise to make you both fishers of men."

[chorus]
Some people claim that they are here without blame
But I know, He can make them whole
