Fishermans Prayer

The Fisherman's Prayer


God grant that I may live to fish
Until my dying day
And when it comes to my last cast
I then most humbly pray
When in the Lord's safe landing net
I'm peacefully asleep
That in his mercy I be judged
As good enough to keep.

[DarkSkies]

.........And when I can't find a fish and have lost all hope....
May the good Lord provide me with a bar of soap....








(let's try to keep this going, people......it's easy., just add 2 lines to it, and try to make them rhyme....)

[buckethead]

when i go down to the sea
I feel alive and free.

[hookset]

when i go down to the sea
I feel alive and free.

X2!

[hookset]

And when I haven't gotten laid
I trys to find me a mermaid

[finchaser]

And when I haven't gotten laid
I trys to find me a mermaid

so much for prayers

[fishinmission78]

And when I haven't gotten laid
I trys to find me a mermaid

Good one. Plenty of em in the strip clubs.




Here are my 2 lines:
I sit there and sincerely wish,
that one day we will be at IBSP to fish

[Monty]

And wade out onto the sand bars.
While I cast my Hogy and am amazed at the sky and stars.

[hookedonbass]

X2!

Great song hookset.



As today the sun began to rise,
it was very pleasing to the eyes

[bababooey]

This I pray when the bass are not really on fire
I will have a nice glass of Chivas by the fire.

[DarkSkies]

That God, with all his Power..........
Can help us through our Darkest hour.........

[stripercrazy]

And wade out onto the sand bars.
While I cast my Hogy and am amazed at the sky and stars.

when I run my boat onto the samdbar, hope that someone will rescue me from afar

[ledhead36]

That God, with all his Power..........
Can help us through our Darkest hour.........

it's darkest right before the dawn,
well I hope the meat men don't kill all the bass so next year they can spawn

Cmon gents let's keep this going.

[baitstealer]

God bless us every one - hope we have a good fall run!

[DarkSkies]

^ Looking back...and reading the feedback from others.....speaking to friends far and wide over the Holidays....I think it's fair to say that many out there did not experience a great fall....if compared to a decade ago......

This thread still has a lot of positive thoughts......I think that, and the prayers finchaser and some of ya's originally posted are some good roads to positivity this year..........
So i'm in as well! .....let's hope for less stress, better or improving health, more opportunities, and greater awareness and involvement on the part of our fellow men.

awesome song!

The Fisherman's Prayer


God grant that I may live to fish
Until my dying day
And when it comes to my last cast
I then most humbly pray
When in the Lord's safe landing net
I'm peacefully asleep
That in his mercy I be judged
As good enough to keep.

Amen to that....

[DarkSkies]

Another amen to a good thread and great prayer.
One I found today when looking for something for Jerry-

Crossing The Bar


Sunset and evening star. And one
clear call for me!

And may there be

no moaning of the bar when I put out
to sea.

But such a tide as moving

seems asleep too full for sound and
foam.

When that which drew from out

the boundless deep turns again home.

Twilight and evening bell, and after

that the dark!

And may there be no

sadness of farewell when I embark;

For though from out our borne of

time - and place the flood may bear

me far,

I hope to see my Pilot face

to face when I have crossed the bar.

[surfstix1963]

Amen...

The Fisherman's Prayer
