Falsely Accused

Falsely accused
trumped up charges
claims that would not stick
the lies of the witnesses
not holding water

Falsely accused
because they could not see
who he truly is
the Christ, Emmanuel

Falsely accused
though he spoke the word
true the holy scripture
preaching the love of God

Falsely accused
in the charge of blasphemy
though he only spoke the truth
righteously claiming his name

Falsely accused
holy, without sin
the lamb sent to the cross
fulfilling the promise of God

on seeing the following poem

------
Guilty

No more false witnesses
no more false claims
Guilty as charged for speaking
for claiming to be the son of God
Blasphemy, in naming the truth
and death on the cross
as the prophets foretold
