The trial of Jesus before the priests and
teachers of the law
“If you are the
Messiah,” they said, “tell us.” Jesus answered, “If I tell you,
you will not believe me, and if I asked you, you would not
answer. But from now on, the Son of Man will be seated at the
right hand of the mighty God.” They all asked, “Are you then the
Son of God?” He replied, “You say that I am.” Then they said,
“Why do we need any more testimony? We have heard it from his
own lips.”
(Luke 22:67-71)
I have been
to see the priests
They will never let me go
It would mean death for them
Their ways
And I must
quell
Any voice within myself
Calming the angels
Who would come at my command
To render true, bright, and terrible
The dark folly
Of this trial
God of endless
grace,
Your justice
overwhelms the world’s.
When we are caught in the snare of condemnation
or even the promises
That this world bestows,
Rescue us, cup us, keep us
Through your love
‘Til the world is truly renewed
And justice rolls like endless, giving water.
Amen |
