"That's My King!" Who Never Ever Fell Away But Always Did Just What He'd Say Then God Did Strike The Shepherd Slay His Own He Won't Deny But Pay He Died And Rose To Love Display!

We've all fallen away

By what we think and do and say

The disciples here have led the way

They all forsook Him – went astray 

But Jesus never fell away!

Oh, we've all fallen away

His disciples failed to understand

Jesus rebuked them

They had hard hearts

They didn't understand Him

They all fell away

But Jesus never fell away!

We've all fallen away

Jesus' disciples lacked faith

They argued in pride and arrogance over who would be the greatest

They failed to deny themselves, pick up their crosses, and follow Him

They all fell away

But Jesus never fell away!

We've all fallen away

Peter had to be called Satan

Peter took his eyes off Jesus and began to sink in the raging sea

Peter denied His Lord Jesus three times with curses and swearing

Peter fell away

They all fell away

But Jesus never fell away!

We've all fallen away

We've made gods of all kinds of things and people and hopes and dreams instead of the only true God

We've taken God's name in vain

We've disregarded the right worship of God

We've all sinned and fallen short of the glory of God

We've all fallen away 

But Jesus never fell away!

We've all fallen away

We've dishonored and disobeyed our parents and other authorities in our lives

We've murdered in our hearts

We've committed adultery in our hearts

We've stolen time and money from our employers

We've lied

We've been discontent, grumbled and complained, and desired what we don't have

We've all fallen away

But Jesus never fell away!

We've all fallen away

But God . . . but God changed us

And now we'll never fall away!

Now we'll never be the same!

By grace alone through faith alone in Christ alone

Now we turn away from sin

Now we turn away from hell

Now we turn away from death

Because Jesus never fell away!

In Christ, we'll never fall away again!

In Jesus we turn away from our love for sin

We turn away from our desires for what God forbids

We turn away from hatred

We turn away from lust

We turn away from idolatry

Because Jesus never fell away!

In Christ, we'll never fall away!

Because of the cross and resurrection, the curse has been turned away from us because Jesus took the curse away for us

God's wrath has been turned away from us because Jesus took God's wrath away for us

Everlasting judgment has been turned away from us because Jesus took God’s everlasting judgment away for us

Pain, tears, and death has been taken away from us because Jesus took away our pain, tears, and death

We've been given fullness of joy and pleasures forevermore because Jesus was cast out of fullness of joy and pleasures forevermore on that cross!

Praise God that Jesus never fell away!

Christ Jesus Never Fell Away

Stood Firm In Every Law Obey

To All God’s Promises He’s “Yea!”

He Is The Truth, The Life, The Way

Peter “Big-Talk” Would Only Say

But Jesus Did All He Would Say

Yet Christ, The Father’s Wrath Would Slay

For Us Our King Was Cast Away

He Died For His Who’ve Gone Astray

Then Rose So We Would Ever Stay

And Never, Never Fall Away

His Love So Great On Full Display

For Even Now For Us He’ll Pray

And Keep Us For That Final Day

So Look To Him, Trust And Obey

For He Is All Our Hope And Stay!
