WLP (W758) Tu has venido a la orilla

You have come down to the lake

Piano     PARTS

Tu has venido a la orilla,
no has buscado, a sabios ni a ricos,
tan solo quieres que yo te siga.

REFRAIN:
Jesús, me has mirado a los ojos,
sonriendo, has dicho mi nombre,
en la arena he dejado mi barca,
junto a ti buscaré otro mar.

Tu, sabes bien lo que tengo,
en mi barca no hay oro ni espada,
tan solo redes y mi trabajo.
[Refrain]

Tu, necesitas mis manos,
mi cansancio que a otros descanse,
amor que quiera seguir amando.
[Refrain]

Tu, Pesacador de otros lagos,
ansia eterna, de almas que esperan,
amigo bueno, que asi me llamas.
[Refrain]


You have come down to the lakeshore
Seeking neither the wise nor the wealthy,
But only asking for me to follow.

REFRAIN
O Jesus, you have looked into my eyes,
Kindly smiling, you've called out my name.
On the sand I've abandoned my small boat;
Now with you, I will seek other seas.

You know full well what I have, Lord;
Neither treasure nor weapons for conquest,
Just these my fishnets and will for working.
[Refrain]

You need my hands, my exhaustion,
Working love for the rest of the weary,
A love that's willing to go on loving.
[Refrain]

You who have fished other waters;
You, the longing of souls that are yearning;
O loving Friend, you have come to call me.
[Refrain]
