Key

Johnnie's nineteen and he doesn't see the matter

Of Judas's dream reaching for the piece of silver

Peter hears the call of the mockingbird from heaven

Cryin' in the morning, havin' given up the key

And I still call Him my friend

And I still call Him my friend

Joshua puts on his mask and walks the road to Jericho

Matthew wears the head piece of chrome and speed and fire

Noah guides the ark through the sea of stolen moments

Searching through his mind for a place to put the key

And I still call Him my friend

And I still call Him my friend

Joseph tends the sheep in his coat of many colors

Shadrach and the two held their faith against the fire

Barabas on the cross found that Jesus was the answer

The doors were open wide to all those who found the key

And we still call Him our friend

And we still call Him our friend
