From the recordings Matthew's Party and The Twelve

Lyrics

Matthew’s Party
Chorus
We’re gonna have a party! (Echo) For all my friends to see!
I’m following Jesus! To-day He noticed me!
Changed my life forever! Now I am tax free! (truly free)
Verse 1
My heart was hard and my eyes closed in, on what was important to me
I’ll never know what made Him take me in, so different than the men at sea
Verse 2
Money had my heart closed tight, nothing else mattered to me
I was climbing up flight by flight of what seemed right to me
Bridge
Then Jesus called me, a voice I’d never heard
I ran from my old life, and clung to His every word
Instead of keeping ledgers, I’d changed illegally
God saw me writing Gospels, He’d use to set men free! Repeat Chorus
Verse 3
Imagine God as the honored host, what would you expect to see
Kings and princes who mattered most, that’s not what came to be
Bridge 2
For Jesus calls the sinners, the lost and least of these
Upside down He shakes the world out of its sinful tree Repeat Chorus
