Lyrics
WAS THAT REALLY ME?
March 24, 2006
By Martin A. Shrout
VERSE #1
Feeling like we?re winners
We never thought it end
Placed in the hands of sinners
Betrayed by a friend
He said it would happen
He said it would be
He said he?d be betrayed
I just never thought it?d be me
never thought it?d be me
CHORUS
Was that really me?
Did I really say those words?
Was that really me?
Remembering seems so blurred
How could I betray him?
After all he had done
Was that really me?
Did I betray God?s only son?
VERSE #2
I knew he was the Christ
I would never fall away
I could never disown him
I?d give my life that day
I boasted of my bravery
I declared my loyalty
Jesus looked deep in my heart
?Three times you?ll betray me!?
?you?ll betray me!?
VERSE #3
I followed at a distance
To the courtyard of his trial
Wishing I was in there
I thought I?d stay awhile
They started pointing fingers
They said I was one of them
I cursed and screamed, ?Get away?
In my fear ----- I betrayed him.
I betrayed him.
