egwu nnanna echem & grandfather - peter lyrics

peter
why should i be a pastor, like a shepherd on the pasture?
why should i be the anchor for the people i will nurture?
why should i lead the broken when i feel like i’m the fracture?
why must the weight of souls rest on my uncertain stature?

i wanted to live a cool life – no noise, no public posture
good job with steady income, had plans for a greater future
imagine chilling in the maldives, dine+wine with my wife
cool breeze in the evening, afro+beats and highlife

but then, a lot changed that fateful date
my whole world would turn around
a c+suite came where i toiled late
i didn’t know he would come around

told me to cast my nets again, i thought, “mhen, how will this work out?”
but i got a big break+bank alert, 6 figures i was cashing out
then he said, “follow me.”
i quit my job… and followed up
i didn’t know it would get to this
at least i would’ve buckled up!
fishers of men in prison clothes, persecution that is legendary
if dying was necessary, i could’ve just joined the military
why should i be a pastor, like a shepherd on the pasture?
why should i be the anchor, for the people i will nurture?
why is it i’m the first? tradition? or for culture?
my name means unstable, and now i have to lead the structure?
the blogs said i nearly drowned…
but at least i walked on water
“get thee behind me, satan,”
but at least i saw elijah
before i got the promise, i had to deny my master
not once. not twice
i wish it happened faster

i ran at the crossroads, came back – it was time for action
spirit+filled with boldness, unction followed his resurrection
initially it was, “i need your boat.”
now it’s, “feed my sheep.”
simon the drifter, who was sought to be sifted
is now peter the gifter + the man that jesus has lifted

i don’t have to be a pastor, like a shepherd on the pasture
the word of god is the anchor for the sheep i will nurture
only because he called me…
his call transformed my stature
i will never be ashamed of the gospel of my saviour
