Pedestal

Pedestal Lyrics

Superstar, performer on a stage
Entertainer, poet, master of the page
Applause, autographs, top of the charts
Power, fame, a million fans' hearts
I don't want the burden
I don't want the beast
DON'T LIFT ME HIGH UPON A PEDESTAL
I'M ONLY HUMAN AND I MAY FALL
AND ONLY GOD DESERVES OUR HIGHEST PRAISE
AND THAT IS WHY TO HIM MY VOICE I RAISE
IF I SHOULD FALL OR LOSE MY FAITH
I PRAY THAT YOU WILL GO THE OTHER WAY
AND LEAVE ME NOT AT THE GATES OF HELL
BUT LIFT ME FROM MY FALLEN PEDESTAL

Preacher, teacher, man of God
It's okay if he gives you the nod
Prophet, scholar, voice for the youth
Perfect, holy, seeker of Truth
You know that I don't deserve the honor
And I am unworthy of His Holy Name

REPEAT CHORUS

To Jesus be the honor, to Jesus be the praise
To Jesus be the honor, to Jesus be the praise
To Jesus be the honor, to Jesus be the praise
To Jesus be the honor, to Jesus be the praise

REPEAT
