The temerity to Rebuke God – v4

Would I have been so ready,

(okay, what was he thinking?)

as Peter had done;

the temerity to rebuke God

to tell Christ what to do

Would I have thought of myself,

as he clearly had done,

not wanting Christ to die;

challenging His words

wanting him to be an earthly King

not enthroned in the sky
