Judas Iscariot: Where Greatest Was Need

Judas Iscariot (Where Greatest Was Need)

So little their faith that the lost He did save,
it's not part of life but belongs in the grave.
Were it only as large as the smallest of seed,
they'd believe His success where greatest was need.

The heel lifted up they saw rightly not clean;
the reason He washed it they can't seem to glean.
Were only their faith as the smallest of seed,
they'd believe His success where greatest was need.

Was He delivered by Satan or God?
They want it both ways, and think it not odd.
Were only their faith as the smallest of seed,
they'd believe His success where greatest was need.

Thirty pieces of silver they say sold Him short,
but selling His failure's the sale He'll abort.
Were only their faith as the smallest of seed,
they'd believe His success where greatest was need.
