Poor Bishop Hooper
Jesus Is Denied by Peter
[Verse 1]
I said, "Even if everyone else
Turns on You, I promise I never will"
[Chorus]
I thought You were wrong, wrong, wrong
Wrong about me
[Verse 2]
I screamed, "Even if I have to die
I'm never, never gonna deny You"
[Chorus]
I thought You were wrong, wrong, wrong
Wrong about me
Oh, I thought You were wrong, wrong, wrong
Wrong about me
[Verse 3]
You used the words of an old, gone man
Said, "God will strike the Shepherd down, down, down"
I know these lines have never been wrong before
But I swear they won't define me now
[Chorus]
Oh, I knew You were wrong, wrong, wrong
Wrong about me
I knew You were wrong, wrong, wrong
Wrong about me
Oh, I knew You were wrong, wrong, wrong
Wrong about me
Oh, I knew You were wrong, wrong
Wrong about me
[Bridge]
And when she asked her question
That servant girl, she broke my heart
I knew she was the message
That You had spoken all along
And two behind her followed in the prints her feet had made
Said they'd seen me walking with You
Said my tongue gave me away
But I swore against their charges
Claimed You I'd never known
Just in time to hear the bird You promised lift its head and crow
Lift its head and crow
[Chorus]
Oh Jesus, I wish You were wrong, wrong, wrong
Wrong about me
Oh, I wish You were wrong, wrong, wrong
Wrong about me
I wish You were wrong, wrong, wrong
Wrong about me
I wish You were wrong, wrong
Wrong about me
