🎶 Peter's Confession
ペトロの告白

🎼 Music by Lee Je-kyung
A Korean composer, pianist, and key figure in Contemporary Christian Music (CCM). He is widely regarded as one of the influential contributors to Korean praise and worship music, particularly known for his work in the genre of "Life Gospel". Active primarily during the late 20th and early 21st centuries, Lee is celebrated for his emotive and meditative compositions that deepen the faith of listeners. Among his notable works is "Peter's Confession," a beloved hymn reflecting biblical themes of repentance and love. His background as a pianist shines through in the tender harmonies and soulful melodies that define his music.

🔔 This poignant gospel song for voice and piano reveals Lee JeKyung’s talent for soulful storytelling. Drawing from Peter’s denial of Jesus on that dark night (Matthew 26:69-75) and his later reaffirmation of love after the resurrection (John 21:15-17), it weaves a tender melody with warm harmonies. The song captures repentance, love, and a call to serve, making it a moving piece for worship or quiet reflection

📜 Lyrics
(translated)
1
I heard it clear,
In the dark of that straw-filled night,
Voices weaving lies all around.
No words could I say,
Just listening there in fright,
Why did my heart feel so unbound?

2
I saw His face,
In the water, His bruised reflection,
Blood and tears upon His brow.
I denied Him then,
Said, "I don’t know that direction,"
Yet His eyes turned to me somehow.

Chorus
"Do you love Me?
Do you love Me?
Tell Me, Peter, do you love Me true?
Do you love Me?"
The Lord’s voice calls me through,
"Feed My lambs, My sheep, for you."

3
I heard once more,
In the rain of that quiet dawn,
His voice so steady, soft, and near.
"Love your neighbor well,"
I know it, yet I’m torn,
Why does my soul still cling to fear?

4
I saw their eyes,
Hungry, sick, and trembling there,
Shivers in their gaze so deep.
I turned away,
Said, "I can’t," with empty care,
But in them, Lord, Your face I’d meet.

Chorus
"Do you love Me?
Do you love Me?
Tell Me, Peter, do you love Me true?
Do you love Me?"
The Lord’s voice calls me through,
"Feed My lambs, My sheep, for you."

Bridge/Ending
I love You, Lord,
I love You, Lord,
More than all, my Savior, I adore.
I love You, Lord,
Down the cross’s road You bore,
I’ll follow where You’ve gone before.
My Lord, I love You evermore.
