Lyrics

Those leaders who seemed
Seemed to be important
Did not change
The Good News I preach

(It doesn’t matter to me
If they are “important” or not.
For to God everyone's the same.)

But these leaders saw
That I'd been given the work
Telling the Good News
To those who are not Jewish,
Just as Peter had the work of telling the Jews.

God gave Peter the power to work
As an apostle for
The Jewish people
But he also gave me the power to work
As an apostle for
Those who are not Jews

James, Peter, and John,
Who seemed to be the leaders,
Understood God
Gave me special grace,

So they accepted us both
Barnabas and me
They agreed they'd go to the Jews

And that we should go
To those who are not Jewish.
They only asked us
Remember to help the poor—
That is something that I really wanted to do.

God gave Peter the power to work
As an apostle for
The Jewish people
But he also gave me the power to work
As an apostle for
Those who're not Jews

God gave Peter the power to work
As an apostle for
The Jewish people
But he also gave me the power to work
As an apostle for
Those who are not Jews

Those who are not Jews

While serving as a contemporary church planter and music director for an Anglican congregation, I began putting liturgy and scripture to music in 2012... [more]
