Luke 5: 11

They left it all behind them there

Upon that windy shore

They followed him because he called;

They needed nothing more

Than his command, “Come, follow me.”

And everything they knew

They left there on the windy shore

As he asked them to do.

They walked down pathways strewn with pain.

It must have been so hard

To not turn back to what they knew,

What they chose to discard.

Their lives grew dangerous and rough,

Their bodies wracked and sore,

And prison cells were bleak indeed

Compared to that lost shore.

Yet, they did not live with regret,

For life held so much more

Because they’d followed as he asked

And left that empty shore.

Luke 5:11
So they pulled their boats up on shore, left everything and followed him.
