after a night that knew no sleep
by eight o’clock in the morning
Christ had been judged, beaten,
scourged by the Romans
now He was back
standing before Caesar
to take the next step
the King of the Jews
a bloody mess, beaten;
but no pity from them
from His own people.
Hate from the mob
when they shouted, Crucify!”,
and sent Him to the cross.
