1 Let down your net tonight, oh brother,
Let down with hope and with pray’r;
Deep in the waters of sin, oh brother,
Souls are yet perishing there.
Refrain:
Let down your net tonight, in faith,
Fishers of men, are ye;
Christ is on board, hath spoken the word,
Mighty to save is he.
2 Let down your net tonight, oh neighbor;
Toil on with love and with tears;
Like the disciples, obey the order,
Souls shall be saved from their fears. [Refrain]
3 Let down your net tonight, oh christian,
Yield not to doubt nor despair;
Into deep waters, launch out, oh christian,
All in this great work may share. [Refrain]
4 Satan is trailing his net, oh sinner,
Artfully trailing for thee;
Halt! or its meshes will surely ensnare you,
Turn, and forever be free. [Refrain]
