Thirty Pieces

Thirty pieces of silver thirty pieces in the sack on a journey to see the master with some guys trained to attack the kiss slight struggle then one lost an ear in the attempt to attack back then Jesus cupped head and ear in hand and healed like so many times before said to his disciples put away your swords for this is my fathers will I am the one prophesied in the scriptures and their words are with us still my fate must be fulfilled prophesy cannot be broken the ones I spoke nor the ones that were spoken thirty pieces of silver look at what they bought the poor mans champion the king of heaven in pain and nailed to a cross those sitting in high places were laughing because the could not perceive the loss repent and give or be forsaken and who can count the cost
