LORD, YOU HAVE COME

Cesáreo Gabaráin

Verse 1. Tú has venido a la orilla,
no has buscado ni a sabios ni a ricos;
tan sólo quieres que yo te siga. (spanish refrain)

Refrain: Señor, me has mirado a los ojos,
sonriendo has dicho mi nombre,
en la arena he dejado mi barca,
junto a Ti buscaré otro mar.

Verse 2. Lord, see my goods, my possessions;
in my boat you find no power, no wealth.
Will you accept, then, my nets & labor? (english refrain)

Refrain: O, Lord, with your eyes set upon me,
gently smiling, you have spoken my name,
all I longed for I have found by the water,
at your side, I will seek other shores.

Verse 3. Lord, take my hands and direct them.
Help me spend myself in seeking the lost,
returning love for the love you gave me. (english refrain)

Verse 4. Tú pescador de otros lagos,
ansia eterna de almas que esperan,
amigo bueno, que asime llamas. (spanish refrain)
