He looked out over the water
having no fear, he obeyed
with each step, a hardened path
but looking down, it then gave way

And the rooster crowed.

A basin filled with water
a servant with gentle hands
he told his Lord not to wash him
not knowing what God had planned

And the rooster crowed.

Promising more than he knew
that he’d never leave His side
but the word would be fulfilled
three times his Lord he denied

And the rooster crowed.

I sing in my heart praises
and say I’ll love Him always
but I deny the love He gave
when each day I disobey

And the rooster crowes.

Grace was extended to Peter
three times his love he professed
Jesus does the same for me
and offers me forgiveness
