We may not like this
the words of truth presented
we have chosen the others
to be our sacrifice
Like the animals
in ancient Israel, the
temple,
brought into the tabernacle
to become the sacrifice
The innocent, pure
the animals unblemished
under the law
they had to be clean
Our hands upon them
placing our sins
the nations forgiven
in repenting to Thee
But the blood that will be
spilled
the pain that will be felt
because we put our hands on
them
not repenting instead
Keeping our money
our treasure, our power
with our hands upon them
they become our sacrifice
We may not like this
the words of truth presented
we have chosen the others
to be our sacrifice
