We were the silence,
complete, utter silence
as the lord was captured,
as he was judged,
brought before Pilate
as he was scourged
as the crowd shouted
We were the silence
as he walked to the skull,
as he cried out on the cross
we were the silence as the world went dark,
the silence as he died, as the body was lowered
We were the silence of the tomb
