Fishers of Men

Representative Text

1 I will make you fishers of men,
Fishers of men, fishers of men,
I will make you fishers of men
If you follow Me;
If you follow Me,
If you follow Me,
I will make you fishers of men
If you follow Me.

2 Hear Christ calling, Come unto Me,
Come unto Me, Come unto Me;
Hear Christ calling, Come unto Me,
I will give you rest;
I will give you rest,
I will give you rest;
Hear Christ calling, Come unto Me,
I will give you rest.

Orphaned at an early age, Clarke ran away from the orphanage and worked at sea for almost 10 years. He eventually moved to London, then to America. He attended the Moody Bible Institute, Chicago, Illinois, then went into composing, music publishing, and evangelism. He served as song leader for Harry vom Bruch and Billy Sunday, being so impressed by Sunday that he established the Billy Sunday Memorial Chapel in Sioux City, Iowa (where he served as pastor until 1945). Clarke also worked in the evangelism field in Garards Fort, Pennsylvania, and South Milford, Indiana. © The Cyber Hymnal™. Used by permission. (www.hymntime.com) Go to person page >
