Inspired by the statement Jesus made to the first Apostles and his instruction for His followers to go into all the world to proclaim the Gospel.
lyrics
(Verse 1 - eCsiLe)
Call me Ishmael, about to set sail on the seven seas, but no Ahab please, if ya can’t tell already the only captain of this ship is J-E…
S-U-S we stay fresh plus blessed, we rock with LORD, in the sea he’s the apex.
There is no Poseidon only the Lion Of Judah is truly a Titan,
No land or sea, man or beast can begin to fathom the eternal nature of the Father or the Son who was led as a lamb to slaughter,
Then rose from the dead to vanquish the devil. He made the seas. No need for a vessel. He is the potter, who walks on Living Water, the Alpha & the Omega.
(Chorus)
Cast a net, it is what it is,
The bait is set so we get what we get.
He paid our debts so we listen to Him,
He gave us a mission and this is it,
No tall tales of whales and giant squid,
No waiting on the Wellerman,
He supplies everything that we need to be free of sin, with one catch, we’re fishers of men.
(Verse 2 - Que Quell)
I'm Que. Just fish is what I do. Just fishing, what?
Fish for fish, fish for men, God timing!
The beginning of the end of the world.
Revelation! Don't you sin, saving souls.
That be the Master's plan. Sunday evening chillin'...
Get together with the men, read the word and praying.
Let's make it to the end hanging out with Jesus.
Don't you know we are friends?
Where two are three are gathered in the midst that He be in.
Feel the Holy Spirit! Let' go out and save our friends!
The world's gotten colder. Pandemic dumb again.
Souls must be broken, COVID ravaging.
Time to step up, choose a side or be damed,
Proclaim Jesus died! In three He rose again!
Come and get saved, be a part of the fam.
Come hang out with my brothers become fishers of men!
(Chorus)
Cast a net, it is what it is,
The bait is set so we get what we get.
He paid our debts so we listen to Him,
He gave us a mission and this is it,
No tall tales of whales and giant squid,
No waiting on the Wellerman,
He supplies everything that we need to be free of sin, with one catch, we’re fishers of men.
(Verse 3 - Whack 'Em Willy)
Cast ya bait men & do your best. Feed your souls & starve your flesh!
People are harder to catch then fish. If you ever lay awake & wonder your purpose...
We’re all full of flaws and nobody’s perfect. We all fall short and feel so worthless like we can't get it right but trust me you're worth it.
Gotta push thru and fight through all of the darkness.
Here, lemme shed some light: He suffered for our sins and He paid a hefty price: spit on, beaten, tortured, then He gave His own life.
Nailed to a cross, that's the blood of Jesus Christ! (Woah!)
Father let me use this vessel to bring people to your level. Let my lyrics speak to 'em through the vocals, beat, and treble.
This is more than just words flowing to an instrumental. Yeah, it's time to go fishing, catching people from the devil.
(Chorus)
Cast a net, it is what it is,
The bait is set so we get what we get.
He paid our debts so we listen to Him,
He gave us a mission and this is it,
No tall tales of whales and giant squid,
No waiting on the Wellerman,
He supplies everything that we need to be free of sin, with one catch, we’re fishers of men.
