Farewell (Acts 1:11)


HE ENJOYED WATCHING THEM WORK

GATHERING THEIR NETS

OR DRYING THEM

SORTING THE FISH

NO WASTED MOTION

WORKMEN DOING THEIR WORK

WELL

TEAM WORK



IT REMINDED HIM OF JOSEPH

HOW THEY COULD WORK IN THE SHOP

LAUGHING OR QUIET

AS THE MOOD CAME ON

WORKMEN DOING THEIR JOB

PROUD AND WELL



I GIVE YOU THE KEYS

TO WORK WORN HANDS

I GIVE THE KEYS

I SHALL MISS YOU ALL



THEN HE WAS GONE



AND THEY STOOD THERE

SEARCHING THE SKY

AS FISHERMEN WILL

CHECKING THE WEATHER



MEN OF GALILEE

THE ANGEL SAID

WHY SEARCH YOU THE HEAVENS

YOUR WORK IS HERE



BUT WE ARE AFRAID

SAID THE FISHERMEN



AS WELL YOU MIGHT BE

SAID THE ANGEL



IF YOU WERE LEFT ALONE



BUT YOU ARE NOT ALONE



NOT ALONE



FOR AS SURE

AS THE RUNNING OF THE SEA

OR EBBING TIDE

IS HIS FAITHFULNESS AND LOVE



AND HE HAS NOT LEFT YOU LONELY

HE HAS NOT LEFT YOU LONELY

HE HAS NOT LEFT YOU LONELY



F. A. VOLLMER
