as Christ was taken away – v3

in the garden that night
on the Mount of Olives
as Christ was taken away
only Judas remained
when Christ was captured

the disciples scattered
after Malchus’ ear was healed
they all ran into the night
only Judas remained
of the twelve disciples

when the guards chained him
as they beat him only Judas remained
as Christ was taken away
for the journey through
the Kidron Valley

dragging Christ in chains
back into David’s city
not like Palm Sunday
another entrance in Jerusalem
through a different gate
