Stranger On The Shore
Michael Card

Michael Card

In the early morning mist

They saw a Stranger on the sea shore

He some how seemed familiar

Asking what the night had brought

With taught anticipation then

They listen to His order

And pulling in the net

Found more than they had ever caught

The one He loved first recognized

The stranger there was Jesus

And he alone remembered

This had happened once before

The one who had denied Him

Who had once walked on the water

Jumped in and swam to Him

To be confronted on the shore

Chorus

You need to be confronted

By the Stranger on the shore

You need to have Him search your soul

You need to hear the call

You need to learn exactly

What it means for you to follow

You need to realize that He's asking for your all

The meal He had prepared for them

Was waiting on the fire

The smell of bread

The sizzle of the fish upon the coals

The laughter and the joy

That once more being all together

They didn't realize that He was searching all their souls

Then came the painful questions

That would pierce the soul of Simon

A three fold chance to reaffirm the love he had denied

The gentle eyes that saw his heart

And waited for an answer

Had seen the look upon his face

The moment he had lied

Chorus

Now realize that you must

Face and answer all His questions

As you stand before the Stranger

On the shore inside your heart
