Pr. Joao Petreceli
As I see you standing there many times
Behind the pulpit
Reading from God’s Word
I think back to all
Those wonderful, blessed sermons
from you that I’ve heard
No, there’s no secret why God
Brought you out
Oh, the many times your
Joy has made me shout!
You see, Pastor,
There was a reason
why God chose you,
Because He knew
That serving Him
With all your heart
Would be your life’s goal
You see, Pastor,
There was a reason
That it was you
That God chose
Not your good looks,
Perfect hair,
And stylish clothes
No, Pastor, the reason
That God reached down
His hand and saved you
Let there be no doubt!
The reason God chose you
Is because He knew
How you would turn out!
The reason, Pastor,
That you mean so much to me
Is that when I look at you
It’s Jesus that I see
For in your footsteps
I so gratefully trod
Because I know
That in following you
I am following God!
