Jesus Appeared by the Sea (Uplifting Christian)

Verse 1

Morning rested on the water

Boats were drawn beside the shore

Tired hands had found no harvest

Hope was nearly gone before

Then a voice called from the distance

Kind and clear across the blue

Turn your nets toward the sunrise

There is mercy waiting for you

Pre-Chorus

And the waves became a witness

To the One they thought was gone

He was standing by the shoreline

Calling weary hearts back home

Chorus

Jesus appeared by the sea

Risen and breathing, alive and free

Bread on the fire, peace in His eyes

Love had defeated the grave and the night

Jesus appeared by the sea

Come, lay your fear down and follow Me

From broken denial to hearts made new

The risen Lord is calling you

Verse 2

John knew Him before the others

Peter leapt into the foam

Ashamed of the night he failed Him

Still the Savior called him home

By the warmth of coals and breakfast

Christ restored what shame had torn

Three times love became the answer

Three times mercy met the dawn

Pre-Chorus

And the waves became a witness

To the One they thought was gone

He was standing by the shoreline

Calling weary hearts back home

Chorus

Jesus appeared by the sea

Risen and breathing, alive and free

Bread on the fire, peace in His eyes

Love had defeated the grave and the night

Jesus appeared by the sea

Come, lay your fear down and follow Me

From broken denial to hearts made new

The risen Lord is calling you

Bridge

When our nets are empty, You remain

When our hearts remember every stain

You prepare a table by the tide

And speak a better future into life

Send us where Your mercy leads

Make us faithful in the fields

Until every shore has heard

The living Savior’s word

Final Chorus

Jesus appeared by the sea

Risen and breathing, alive and free

Bread on the fire, peace in His eyes

Love had defeated the grave and the night

Jesus appeared by the sea

Your grace is stronger than our history

From broken denial to hearts made new

The risen Lord is calling you

Outro

By the quiet Galilean shore

We hear His voice and fear no more

The risen Lord is calling you
