Amenable Andrew

Tune: Galilee

(\'Jesus calls us o\'er the tumult\')

John 1 v.35-42

**********

Two disciples of John Baptist

Stood with him, a sight not missed

They saw Jesus, John said, Behold

The Lamb of God, it be told!

 

The two disciples did him hear

And as Jesus did appear

They followed Him, Jesus did turn

Saw them, He did them discern

 

He said, What seek you? They, Rabbi* (*Master)

Said to Him there by and by

Where do you dwell? He said, Come, see

They did so, stayed with Him free

 

One disciple, he was Andrew

And followed Jesus there true

He Simon Peter\'s brother be

And found him, said. Come too, see

 

Andrew said to Peter, Here we

Have found the Messiah, He

Is the Christ, the Anointed One

He is God the Father\'s Son

 

Andrew to Jesus Peter brough

Found the one that they had sought

Jesus said, Peter, Cephas* you (*stone, rock)

Shall be called, a stone, strong, true

 

So Lord, help us evangelise

As Andrew, to task arise

That we bring others unto you

Souls to be saved not a few
