Disciple
Petra's song 'Disciple' is a rock-influenced Christian anthem about making a deliberate decision to follow Jesus. The lyrics express a personal transformation from a life of delusion to finding peace and purpose in Christ. The singer acknowledges the cost of discipleship but willingly pays it, valuing servanthood over worldly riches. The song also touches on the urgency of the harvest and the desire to be used by God, culminating in the hope of hearing 'Well done, faithful servant.' It's a straightforward call to wholehearted commitment and obedience.
Love flowing around me
A new found peace inside
I've made a decision
And now I'm satisfied
Jesus told me to follow
And to count the cost I'm willing to pay
I know I'm not worthy
And I know it's not the easiest way
I just want to be
I just want to be
I just want to be His disciple
I lived a delusion
With no one else to blame
I found a solution
When I called on His name
I may not have money or riches
But I found something better to be
To be a servant of Jesus
He means more than the world to me
The fields are ready for harvest
But the laborers are few
I just want to be where the Lord can use me
And work until the day is through
All of my life I've been searching
For the person who hides in me
I finally found someone
Who could make me who I want to be
I can't wait to see Him
Just want to hear Him say
"Well done faithful servant
Enter into joy today"
