Rob Gardner - Peter's Denial lyrics
[Rob Gardner - Peter's Denial lyrics]
And they led Jesus away to
Caiaphas the high priest
Where the scribes and the
Elders were assembled
Now all of the council sought
False witnesses against Jesus
To put him to death and so they came:
This fellow here, This blasphemer
I heard Him say-Yes, I heard it myself-
That He claims He is able to
Tear down the temple of God
And build it again in three days! Three days!
Yes, I heard it myself!
And Thou sayest nothing?
But Jesus held his peace
Because it's the truth
Now Peter had followed Jesus afar off and
Sat without in the palace: and a
Damsel came unto him
I know thy face
Thour wast with Jesus of Galilee!
I know i know not i
Know not what thou sayest!
And the high priest said unto Jesus
Answerest thou nothing? I adjure thee
By the living God, that thou tell
Us whether thou be the Christ, the Son of
God jesus saith unto him
Thou hast said: nevertheless I say unto you
Hereafter shall ye see the Son of man
Sitting on the right hand of power
And coming in the clouds of heaven
He hath spoken blasphemy! Behold
Now ye have heard for yourselves His
Blasphemy!
Then did they spit in his face
And buffeted him and others smote him with
The palms of their hands, Saying
Prophecy unto us, thou Christ, who is he
That smote thee?
And Caiaphas asked of the council
What think ye? They answered and said
He is guilty of death
And Peter made his way out
Into the porch there
Another maid recognized him
This fellow here:
This fellow here was with Jesus of Nazareth
I've seen him there also
I swear to you: No, I do not know the man!
But surely thou also art one of them
Surely thou followed with Jesus
Thy speech is of Galilee
I've seen you there also
Yes, thou wast with Jesus of Galilee!
Thou was with Jesus of Nazareth
Thou wast with Jesus of Galilee!
Thou wast with Jesus of Nazareth!
Thou wast with Jesus of Galilee!
Thou was with Jesus of
I know not the man!
And immediately the cock crew
Caiaphas the high priest
Where the scribes and the
Elders were assembled
Now all of the council sought
False witnesses against Jesus
To put him to death and so they came:
This fellow here, This blasphemer
I heard Him say-Yes, I heard it myself-
That He claims He is able to
Tear down the temple of God
And build it again in three days! Three days!
