FELLOW TRAVELLER
© 2013 Giles Meehan
Fellow traveller, are you weary? Need to rest?
Broken from your journey, don't know which way's best?
Listen, for I've found a way, that is safer than light
He will carry your chains and burdens, His load is light
Fellow traveller, are you thirsty? Need to drink?
Broken and so empty, don't know what to think?
Listen, for I've found a well, with the water of life
He'll fill you for ever more, He washes you white
I was once like you, lost on my lonely path
I was once like you, with my broken heart
Sometimes still like you, self sufficient and hard
I was once like you, but then God took me apart
Fellow sinner, are you weeping? Need to confess?
Broken by your failings, and by your mess?
Listen, for I've found a Saviour, He has opened the gate
He will carry your sins and verdict, follow Him to escape
Listen, for I've found forgiveness, God declares me right!
His love for you is true, His load is light
