Intro
Oh oh
Lord have mercy
Verse 1
Old Peter pushed the wooden hull from the sandy shore
The Morning was silent
I felt the hunger deep inside my aching chest
Empty nets mean a long walk home
Pre-Chorus
But a Man stood tall upon the bank
He spoke like a king with a quiet grace
Follow My lead he said
Chorus
He told me throw it to the right
Watch the miracles begin tonight
Silver scales flash against the morning sun
A thousand tiny battles already won
Throw it to the right
He told me throw it to the right
Post-Chorus
Bring them in
Watch the ropes stretch thin
Glory glory
Verse 2
The boat tipped low while the cedar started to moan
Mesh began to snap
Staring at the harvest filling up the floor
The timber began to sink beneath my knees
Pre-Chorus
My little faith died right there in the waves
I looked at the shoreline and saw his face
Follow My lead he said
Chorus
He told me throw it to the right
Watch the miracles begin tonight
Silver scales flash against the morning sun
A thousand tiny battles already won
Throw it to the right
He told me throw it to the right
Post-Chorus
Bring them in
Watch the ropes stretch thin
Glory glory
Bridge
Two hundred and fifty-seven counts
My net was shredding apart
The boat was drowning low
But my heart was catching fire
Catching fire
My soul was catching fire
Chorus
He told me throw it to the right
Watch the miracles begin tonight
Silver scales flash against the morning sun
A thousand tiny battles already won
Throw it to the right
He told me throw it to the right
Post-Chorus
Bring them in
Watch the ropes stretch thin
Glory glory
