Power to Work (Gal. 2:6-10) ft. Suzanne Vaartstra Lyrics

Those leaders who seemed

Seemed to be important

Did not change

The Good News I preach

(It doesn't matter to me

If they are "important" or not.

For to God everyone's the same.)

But these leaders saw

That I'd been given the work

Telling the Good News

To those who are not Jewish,

Just as Peter had the work of telling the Jews.

God gave Peter the power to work

As an apostle for

The Jewish people

But he also gave me the power to work

As an apostle for

Those who are not Jews

James, Peter, and John,

Who seemed to be the leaders,

Understood God

Gave me special grace,

So they accepted us both

Barnabas and me

They agreed they'd go to the Jews

And that we should go

To those who are not Jewish.

They only asked us

Remember to help the poor—

That is something that I really wanted to do.

God gave Peter the power to work

As an apostle for

The Jewish people

But he also gave me the power to work

As an apostle for

Those who're not Jews

God gave Peter the power to work

As an apostle for

The Jewish people

But he also gave me the power to work

As an apostle for

Those who are not Jews

Those who are not Jews
