Jesus Appeared by the Sea (Solemn Uplifting)

[Verse 1] Morning rested on the water Boats were drawn beside the shore Tired hands had found no harvest Hope was nearly gone before Then a voice called from the distance Kind and clear across the blue Turn your nets toward the sunrise There is mercy waiting for you [Pre-Chorus] And the waves became a witness To the One they thought was gone He was standing by the shoreline Calling weary hearts back home [Chorus] Jesus appeared by the sea Risen and breathing, alive and free Bread on the fire, peace in His eyes Love had defeated the grave and the night Jesus appeared by the sea Come, lay your fear down and follow Me From broken denial to hearts made new The risen Lord is calling you [Verse 2] John knew Him before the others Peter leapt into the foam Ashamed of the night he failed Him Still the Savior called him home By the warmth of coals and breakfast Christ restored what shame had torn Three times love became the answer Three times mercy met the dawn [Pre-Chorus] And the waves became a witness To the One they thought was gone He was standing by the shoreline Calling weary hearts back home [Chorus] Jesus appeared by the sea Risen and breathing, alive and free Bread on the fire, peace in His eyes Love had defeated the grave and the night Jesus appeared by the sea Come, lay your fear down and follow Me From broken denial to hearts made new The risen Lord is calling you [Bridge] When our nets are empty, You remain When our hearts remember every stain You prepare a table by the tide And speak a better future into life Send us where Your mercy leads Make us faithful in the fields Until every shore has heard The living Savior’s word [Final Chorus] Jesus appeared by the sea Risen and breathing, alive and free Bread on the fire, peace in His eyes Love had defeated the grave and the night Jesus appeared by the sea Your grace is stronger than our history From broken denial to hearts made new The risen Lord is calling you [Outro] By the quiet Galilean shore We hear His voice and fear no more The risen Lord is calling you
