LYRICS

You called them out, broken souls like me,
picked them up like branches from a fallen tree
You gave their lives meaning, and showed them all the Kingdom was at hand
Then You sent them out, two by two, to share all the power they found in You
Then upon their homecoming they told of miracles unfolding in Your Name

Then You asked them, "Who do you say I Am? Who do you really believe I Am?"
Though they each knew the answer, none ever heard You ask before
Then Peter spoke into Your eyes, "You are the Savior You are the Christ...
Messiah," he answered, "Son of the living God"

Then You told them You soon would have to leave
to Jerusalem to face tremendous suffering
At the hands of religion, Your temple would be beaten, left for ruin
Then You took Your cross to reveal the way,
calling all who believe to life crucified
Then a thief dying with You asked, "Lord, in Your kingdom,
would You please remember me?"

Then You asked him, "Who do you say I Am? Sure as I know you believe I Am…
You've no reason to worry, you're joining Me in paradise this day."
One soldier looked up to Your eyes,
heard Your last breath as he watched You die
That moment he found You, "Son of the living God"

Now You ask me, "Who do you say I Am? Who do you really believe I Am?"
Lord I live for Your kingdom, in You alone, in You alone I do believe... I believe
And I pray You keep me in Your eyes and Lord God with all of my soul I cry
Messiah my Savior, Son of the living God, my Lord... Messiah my Savior
Son of the living God, my Lord... my Jesus my Savior, Son of the living God... My God
