Verse 1
A moment of silence, took place in a courtyard
As Jesus and Peter stood eye to eye.
The crow of a rooster still echoed through the darkness
As face to face with Jesus, Peter denied
Verse 2
Tears of resentment, ran down Peters garment
As he cried out in anguish, "Lord, what have I done?"
He prayed, "Please forgive me, wrap your arms around me.
I want to be a man you can always count on."
Chorus 1
Pick up the pieces and gave them to Jesus
He came to free you from the guilt of your sin
Your life is not over because of your failure
Just pick up the pieces and gave them to Him
Bridge
Shouts of rejoicing were heard on a hillside
As Peter, now forgiven
Well, he preached with great power.
The spirit came and dwelt there
Three thousand souls were saved there
As Peter shouted, "Satan, just look at me now!"
Chorus 2
I picked up the pieces and gave them to Jesus
He came to free me from the guilt of my sin
My life is not over because of my failure
I picked up the pieces and gave them to Him
