The Good News
Peter:All my life I had
routine, routine,
my feet stuck in the nets1
getting uip, sailing,
fishing, going back to bed.
I was like fish
that suffocate in the free air
and look, he is coming..
John:
All my life I had
routing, routine,
starting, restarting,
my eyes on reflections
going back, cleaning up,
I was llike scorpions
who walk backwards
and at last he is coming.
Together:
The Good News is him
The Good New is crazy
The Good News is him
The good News is us.
Judas:
All my life I had
routine, routine,
my heart trapped by my thoughts
and as the only future
to have been born to die
he undoes our bonds
I will get rid of mine,
at last he is coming.
Peter:
All my life I had
routine, routine,
my hands that bled on the lines.
Judas and John:
he said 'raise your heads'
Peter:
The Kingdome is a party
Peter and Judas
Only he knows our worth.
Together:
We are the new men
he is coming.
Together:
The Good News is him
The Good New is crazy
The Good News is him
The good News is us.
Judas:
He says 'follow me, leave everything'
Peter:
That's fine, us, we've got nothing.
John:
Fortunate2 are the meek and the little children.
Peter, Judas:
Tht's fine, we like life.
John:
Life is eternal.
Together:
It is ours if we follow him,
if we follow him.
The Good News is him
The Good News is crazy
The Good News is him
The Good News is us.
