Contact me if the Spirit gives you the music to these words. I'm looking for a composer collaborator.

 

When the Rooster Crows

 

When the rooster crows

It hits me

I don’t know Him,

Was never with Him

Well that’s the probably the message I confide

I’ve not mentioned my journey by His wounded side

 

When the rooster crows

I’m sorry

My back I turned

I couldn’t see Him

Imagine the pain He felt each time He heard

Though my denial was far from what my Lord deserved

 

I deny my Lord

Once or twice

Even three times

But only notice

When the rooster crows and dawn is in my eyes

Forgive my apathy, denials, silence and lies

 

The darkness hid me

Long the night

Anxious, selfish

I left him dying

Yet He reaches down and wipes my tears away

His love extends beyond the rooster’s crow each day
