Standing before them
God in the dock
the defendant unbowed
standing before the righteous
In the darkness, in secret
lies hurled against him
unable to prove his guilt
making him take an oath
His answer unequivocal
straight-forward and direct
stating clearly he is the Christ
a threat they could not stand
Their reward already had
on earth alone exalted
treasure here in the world
this walk would be their end
His fate sealed
in his answer, his choice
led to the blood on the cross
following the will of God.
