[Intro] If I were accused of being a follower, would there be evidence enough to convict me Or would the judge say, “You’ve Got The Wrong man!” please let him go free... [Verse 1] One night a man had a dream, a court scene was set in view He saw a well-dressed man seated at the defense table, what, did he do? The prosecutor stood up and began to unfold this most important case You’d have thought he’d already won, by the look on his face Sir, your honor, the evidence will show, this man is of Christ He’s part of the church, he counted the cost and has paid a dear price Look at him there, seated so still, he’s one of them, I know He’s not the wrong one….we can’t just let him go…. [Chorus lower tempo] When the world looks at me Oh Lord. What do they see? Do they see a man after Thee Or, Will I Go free…. Will I Go free?....... [Verse 2] In the next scene, the defense man took his place He knew he’d have an easy time making his case Your honor, my client’s outcome is an easy task You see, he’s only pretending he’s wearing a mask Any good he does, there is a motive there For the poor and needy, he doesn’t care My friend over there says, he knows Christ is on the inside But a bushel is not enough for him to hide….. [Verse 3] Finally, he sees the case handed into the judge’s hand He says there’s something, all but one of us seems to understand Doing deeds of kindness is all fine and good As even Jesus said, we all really should But the difference is that our friend over there Has no business representing the children of God, he does not belong here As the dream began to fade and the hidden meaning began to flow, The wise old judge bangs his gavel saying, “You got the wrong man, please, let him go……” [Bridge solemnly and melodic] If I were accused of being a follower, would there be evidence enough to convict me Or would the judge say, “You’ve Got The Wrong man!” please let him go free... [Chorus lower tempo] When the world looks at me Oh Lord. What do they see? Do they see a man after Thee Or, Will I Go free…. Will I Go free?.......
