 Snippets

 

A little girl sat at a long table

Along with other little girls and boys.

A kind lady passed out crackers and juice.

She sang, “I will make you fishers of men,

If you follow me.” The song sounded nice

but the little girl wondered what it meant.

Looking back on that small snippet of time

And others of my limited church life

I’m amazed how He wove them together

So when I, at fourteen, heard the gospel

I latched onto it and did not let go.

Now almost fifty years later I pray,

“I will follow You, follow You Jesus

So please make me a fisher of people.”
