Arms of the Fisherman

This is inspired by the words of one of my songs, "The Arms of the Fisherman," It's on a 16x12 stretched canvas in bright acrylics. The Arms of the Fisherman By Tom Hokanson Let the waves wash over you Let the love rush over too And you will be in the Arms of the Fisherman Come and rest inside His boat When the storms rage, you will float So put yourself in the Arms of the Fisherman In our struggles there will be On the shore and on the sea Jesus waiting there for me. And you. So run into the Arms of the Fisherman When you read the Bible book There’s a Spirit and a hook And you’ll be caught in the Arms of the Fisherman Walk on water if you can If you can’t then take His hand And you’ll be held in the Arms of the Fisherman When the water is too deep When the mountain is too steep Jesus saves the day for me. And you. So run into the Arms of the Fisherman

Chapter II: Freedom  explores what it means to be free and how we can develop a deeper appreciation for the freedoms...
