Prayer Corner #38 – November 19, 2025
Being Called – by Veliko 2025
This song is written about Matthew 4: 18-23
and influenced by what Gina has written for Prayer Corner

I see Thee, Lord, by Galilee,
Thy sandals kissed by shore and sea,
The boats are moored, the nets hang dry,
Yet in Thy gaze, the heavens lie.

The fishermen with calloused hand,
Didst hear Thy voice and leave the sand,
No question asked, no burden borne,
Just hearts that rose like light at morn.

O call me, Lord, as Thou didst then,
Beside the sea, through dust and men.
I’ll cast my net no more for gold,
But follow Thee, brave, strong, and bold.

Thou walked the path where sinners trod,
Yet every step revealed our God.
With healing hand and Gospel word,
Thy voice, though soft, was always heard.

Did they but feel Thy holy flame,
Before they knew Thy wondrous Name?
Or was it love, too pure to flee,
That drew them fast to follow Thee?

O call me, Lord, as Thou didst then,
Beside the sea, through dust and men.
I’ll cast my net no more for gold,
But follow Thee, brave, strong, and bold.

O Christ, if I had walked that shore,
Would I have dropped my life for more?
Yet now Thou call’st in Spirit’s breath,
And bids me rise from doubt and death.

Thy Galilee is here today,
Where’er Thy footsteps lead the way.
And I, though weak, shall not delay—
Thy voice still calls, I must obey.

O call me, Lord, as Thou didst then,
Beside the sea, through dust and men.
I’ll cast my net no more for gold,
But follow Thee, brave, strong, and bold.

Amen... Amen... I follow Thee.
