As I drift on the water
A voice calling to me had said
Sail in to the harbor
Cast down your nets and follow me
First of all the chosen
I saw the raising of the dead
It must be my devotion
For I stood alone upon that sea
So I walked on the tempest
I saw the waves below my feet
It's clear I was the bravest
To meet the stranger on the deep
I am the rock on which to build this land
Got the keys to the kingdom
I'm at His right hand
I was the first among the chosen
The boldest in devotion
Walking out upon the ocean
What else could I need?
I'm well-versed in forgiveness
As many as seven times repeat
In service was I fearless
Attack my king, my blade you'd reap
What else could I need?
What else could I need?
Haunting my reflection
A bitter thought comes to my mind
I made known my objection
About how You had come to die
You said my thoughts were of the devil's kind
I was opposed to Your kingdom
And I should get behind
But You were talking like You're cursed
Already laying in Your deathbed
Maybe somehow You were mislead
May it never be!
You said I would fall away
Before the rooster's crow would end
To my shame did I betray
Deny You as my closest friend
I'm singing, heart is hardened
I'm sleeping in the garden
I'm swinging swords I'm guarding
My kindgom and my stardom
Am I different than Judas?
For I betrayed the kindest friend
I'm all out of excuses
With nothing to make my amends
O Love! O Love! O Love!
You bottomless abyss!
O Love! O Love! O Love!
You bottomless abyss!
How tender You had spoken
Though I betrayed the kindest friend
Faithful in devotion
Such love I cannot comprehend
Oh when You found me I was broken
From the words that I had spoken
But You were faithful in devotion
You remembered me!
You remembered me!
