graham kendrick - peter at the breaking of the bread lyrics

Loading...

[verse 1]
well i was standing in the shadows at the breaking of the bread
as he touched in cap in silence at the bowing of his head
and judas stole out silently as hushed the prayers were held
i knew this was jesus, at the breaking of the bread

[verse 2]
well i was standing in the shadows of the cool gethsemane
trying hard to disbelieve what my weary eyes could clearly see
the lights, the cries, the flash of steel in the shadow in an outstretched tree
i knew this was jesus, but this i could not foresee

[verse 3]
well i was standing in the shadows at the throwing of the dice
wishing i were twenty thousand men, man i would take that soldier’s life
but jesus looked down quietly, forgiveness in his eyes
i knew this was jesus, such love comes as a surprise

[verse 4]
well i was standing in the shadows man i wish i’d not been born
rubbing shoulders with the soldier boys who laughed and mocked to scorn my lord
i could hardly recognize his face, his body was so torn
i knew this was jesus, and soon he will be dead…

[vamp]
at the breaking of the dawn i stood and watched the place
where they laid his body down
but on the stone bed where they laid him dead
n0body could be found
then a man in dazzling light
with a voice of triumph said
“he is alive!”
“he is alive!”
“he is alive!”
“he is alive!”
