I Am MERCY JUSTICE--
I am a fisher of men I wonder what it will feel like to swim in the waters Jesus tread I hear the sound of the crowd cheering my name It's not me but the Christ in me, my light does so shine I want a mansion in heaven and walk the streets of gold I am a fisher of men I pretend that I am mere-mortal man I feel proud I stand on the shiny streets of gold I worry that my sick brother won't be able to make it to meet me at the roll I cry about my brother's sickness I am a fisher of men I understand how much my brother wants to see me in heaven I say that when I receive my salvation he too can receive and be made whole I dream about my brother standing up and cheering for us I try to help him get better every day on our knees we often pray I hope my dreams come true I am a fisher of men please pray for us pray for him
