When Jesus Saw the Fishermen
Peter Said, "I'm Going Fishing"
Author: Carolyn Winfrey Gillette Hymnal: Singing the New Testament #112 (2008) Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Topics: Vocation, Ministry Lyrics: 1 Peter said, "I'm going fishing,"
so his friends went out with him.
Through the night, they labored, watching,
hauling empty nets back in.
In the grey of early morning,
Jesus, you came walking by.
From the beach you called a greeting,
"Cast out on the other side!"
2 Soon their nets were filled to brimming;
someone cried, "It is the Lord!"
Jumping in, he started swimming;
Christ, you met him on the shore.
Guiding them to better waters,
eating fish and sharing bread -
you showed Peter and the others:
You were risen from the dead!
3 Risen Christ, you send us fishing!
God's great sea is everywhere.
you have guided us in mission,
you have given love to share.
Through the years, our church has heard you,
we have answered your great call:
"Cast your nets where I have told you.
Bring my Word of love to all!"
4 Lord, be with our congregation;
by your Spirit, send us forth!
May we care for your creation;
may we work for peace on earth.
In our worship, in our giving,
in our serving those in need,
may we know, Lord; you are living,
guiding us in ministry.

Peter Said, "I'm Going Fishing"
Above the voices of the world around me
Author: Timothy Dudley-Smith (b. 1926) Hymnal: Ancient and Modern #114 (2013) Meter: 11.10.11.10 D Topics: Vocation Lyrics: 1 Above the voices of the world around me,
my hopes and dreams, my cares and loves and fears,
the long-awaited call of Christ has found me,
the voice of Jesus echoes in my ears:
'I gave my life to break the cords that bind you,
I rose from death to set your spirit free;
tum from your sins and put the past behind you,
take up your cross and come and follow me.'
2 What can I offer him who calls me to him?
Only the wastes of sin and self and shame;
a mind confused, a heart that never knew him,
a tongue unskilled at naming Jesus' name.
Yet at your call, and hungry for your blessing,
drawn by that cross which moves a heart of stone,
now Lord I come, my tale of sin confessing,
and in repentance turn to you alone.
3 Lord, I believe; help now my unbelieving;
I come in faith because your promise stands.
Your word of pardon and of peace receiving,
all that I am I place within your hands.
Let me become what you shall choose to make me,
freed from the guilt and burden of my sins.
Jesus is mine, who never shall forsake me,
and in his love my new-born life begins. Scripture: Mark 1:14-20 Languages: English Tune Title: ASTON ROWANT

To Know God's Mind and Do His Will
Author: Christopher Idle Hymnal: Singing the New Testament #116 (2008) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Topics: Vocation, Ministry Lyrics: 1 To know God's mind and do his will
disciples sought his face;
with Judas gone, they now must fill
the twelfth and vacant place.
2 They looked for one prepared to lead
and witness by his word:
"Though Jesus died, he lives indeed,
for I have seen the Lord."
3 One who has followed in the way
since John at first baptized,
and walked with them until the day
they saw the sacending Christ.
4 Matthias then was set apart,
apostle of good news;
and God, who knows the human heart,
still calls those he will use.
5 Lord, make your battle-line complete:
make known your sovereign choice,
that we may serve with willing feet
and Christ-uplifting voice. Scripture: Acts 1:12-26 Languages: English Tune Title: DUNDEE

Unless the LORD the House Shall Build
Hymnal: Christian Worship #127D (2021) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Topics: Vocation Lyrics: 1 Unless the Lord the house shall build,
the weary builders toil in vain;
unless the LORD the city shield,
the guards a useless watch maintain.
2 In vain you rise at morning break,
in vain your late-night vigils keep,
and draining days of work partake—
those whom God loves fall fast asleep.
3 Yes, children are a great reward,
a gift from God in very truth;
as quiver full of arrows stored
are children giv'n in days of youth.
4 How blest are those whose lives are cheered
by children's growth in strength and grace.
Within their house no foes are feared,
for God keeps watch within that place. Scripture: Psalm 127 Languages: English Tune Title: O WALY WALY
