A Poem for Peters

"I am Simon Peter and I love you Lord!
See my devotion as I swing this sword!"

Simon Peter, I love you and know thee,
Rooster crowing, you deny you know me.
Foot in mouth and boldness broken,
Fear not, Peter, grace has spoken.

"I am Simon Peter and I love you Lord!
See my devotion as I swing this sword!"

  Simon Peter, do you love me more than cheese?

Cheese Lord? Yes, Jesus, I love you please,
I love you so much more than cheese.

But Peter, your stomach, your belly,
It really really wants PB and jelly,
By your appetites you will be led,
It's so hard to follow full of bread.


"I am Simon Peter and I love you Lord!
See my devotion as I swing this sword!"

Simon Peter, do you love me more than ease?


Ease Lord? Yes, Jesus, I love you please,
I love you so much more than ease.


But Peter, we know, ease is so easy,
Suffering is tough, it makes you queasy.
By your leisure you'll fall asleep,
Can't bear a cross if comfort you keep.


"I am Simon Peter and I love you Lord!
See my devotion as I swing this sword!"

Simon Peter, do you love me more than Wiis?


Wiis Lord? Err, Jesus, what are these Wiis?
I think I love you more than Wiis.

Peter, Wiis are techno-innovation,
Techno-worshiped in adoration,
 By your fascination you're directed,
In your distraction, I am rejected.

Simon Peter, I love you and know thee,
Rooster crowing, you deny you know me.
Foot in mouth and boldness broken,
Fear not, Peter, grace has spoken.

Do we truly love You more than these?

Your grace should bring us to our knees.
