lyrics

The Peter Song (Capo2-4?) © Lightning Lucas, 2014

(C)Look, Jesus, Peter said, the (G)fig tree that you cursed is dead,
of (C)course it is Peter, you just don't (G)get it. 
Look, Jesus, Peter said, the hungry people now have bread,
of course they do Peter you just don't get it. 
Look, Peter, Jesus said, I heal the sick and raise the dead,
if this isn't the Kingdom, then what is it... Gwalk
Chorus (Am)Truly I tell you if you say to this mountain, "be (C)lifted up and thrown in the ocean," if you (G)do not doubt then it will surely come to (Am)pass, and so I tell you that whatever you pray for, be(C)lieve you've received it, and it will be yours, but (G)don't forget to forgive so you can be for(Am)given. 

Look, Jesus, Peter said, we've fished all night without one bite.
Just one more time Peter, you've got to trust me. 
Look, Jesus, Peter said, we've fished all night without one bite.
The other side Peter, you've got to trust me. 
Look, Peter, Jesus said, don't over think, you will not sink,
come walk on water to me Peter, trust me... 
Chorus
Am,G
Do you know this man? I've never met him. Aren't you from Galilee? Not me. x2 Do you know this man? I've never met him! Curses be upon me if I've ever even seen him before...
... bass notes and guitar thumping representing nails in the cross, short silence
... 
Do you love me more than these? I do, I do, I'm devoted to you. Follow me.
Do you love me more than these? I do, I do, I'll prove it to you. Feed my sheep.
Do you love me more than your kids and your wife, more than your culture, your cash or you life, do you love me more than your job or your friends, will you follow me to the bitter end?
Lord Jesus, you know everything, you know I love you more than these. x2
If you love me more than these then do what it takes,
pick up your cross, follow me. (both lines x2)
Chorus
Am, G
Follow me, follow me, follow me, 
Follow me.
