🎶 Song 129 – The Mission Divine – Versatile Jesus

Paper 129 – Later Adult Life of Jesus 🎶 Song: The Mission Divine – Versatile Jesus (Verse 1 – Work in Capernaum) He built the boats with steady hand, On Galilee’s bright, shining sand. With Zebedee he shaped the frame, And “Master” was the honored name. (Verse 2 – The Zebedee Sons) John beheld his spirit’s flame, James admired his mind’s acclaim. David praised his craftsman’s art, Each saw a gift, a vital part. (Verse 3 – Family and Freedom) He gave to James the guiding role, Released the home, prepared his soul. Yet still he sent support and care, A brother’s love beyond compare. (Verse 4 – Zebedee’s Secret) Only Zebedee knew the way, Where Jesus traveled night and day. He kept the trust, the silence deep, A sacred vow he chose to keep. (Verse 5 – Comfort to Mary) He calmed the mother’s anxious heart, Assured her love would never part. Though gone afar, her son was near, In Zebedee’s words she found no fear. (Verse 6 – The House in Nazareth) With savings placed in faithful hands, A home was bought, secure it stands. For Mary’s care, the children’s need, Provision born of Jesus’ deed. (Verse 7 – Journey with Gonod and Ganid) An Indian merchant crossed the sea, With son Ganid in company. Jesus taught with wisdom true, Their hearts were changed, their vision grew. (Verse 8 – Across the Mediterranean) Rome and Corinth, Crete and more, He walked through every crowded shore. The scribe of Damascus, tutor, friend, His mission’s light began to bend. (Verse 9 – Consciousness of Mission) No school of thought, no worldly fame, But Spirit’s fire, the Father’s name. He knew his path, divinely clear, To show God’s love both far and near. (Chorus – Versatile Jesus) Spirit bright, and mind profound, Hands that built on solid ground. Human heart, yet God’s own Son, The mission lived, the work begun. (Outro – Eternal Witness) From Capernaum to distant lands, He carried truth in gentle hands. Versatile, pure, and free, Revealing God for all to see.
