Do You love Me — that's the question,
G      D      C
asked by the One I'm living for.
G      D      Em     C
Three denials in the darkness,
G      D      C
three restores by the sea.
G      D      Em     C
Rooster in the courtyard,
G      D      C
Jesus on the shore,
G      D      Em     C
and the One whose love I denied was always by my side.
G      D      C

Spoken 1
Em     C      G      D
In the palace by the fire,
Em     C      G      D
I wrapped my cloak in tight,
Em     C      G      D
trying hard to disappear
Em     C
in the shadows of the night.
Em     C      G      D
But out there on the water,
Em     C      G      D
when I saw my Lord once more,
Em     C      G      D
I flung my cloak aside—
Em     C
no further need to hide.

Em     C      G      D
The fire's smoke — it hit me—
Em     C      G      D
three denials in the night.
Em     C      G      D
But Jesus met me with a smile
Em     C
and breakfast by the fire.
Em     C      G      D
Then Jesus signaled with a wave,
Em     C      G      D
inviting me to walk—
Em     C      G      D
he said the two of us need some time to talk.
