[Verse] On the shores of Galilee Walked a fisherman so free Heard a voice call from afar Left his nets to chase this star [Verse 2] By the side of Jesus stayed Through the nights and stormy days Witnessed moments pure and grand Felt the touch of healing hands [Chorus] Oh St. John he held the light In his heart through darkest night Lived a life so full and long Singing heaven’s timeless song [Verse 3] At the cross he stood alone In the crowd yet far from home Heard God's voice as he spoke clear “Behold your mother” through his tears [Bridge] Years then passed his hair turned gray His stories never fade away On Patmos isle he heard God's call Visions great to humble all [Verse 4] Words he penned with fervent love Guided by the holy dove Mysteries deep in letters penned Truths to guide us to the end
