about

Jesus suffered for us in many ways. He was flogged and nailed to a cross, but he was also betrayed by one calling himself "friend" (Luke 22:47-48)

lyrics

You said

You said

You would follow him until
no one was left
and all he had was

His friend

His friend

Who sought

To betray him that night with

A kiss

A kiss

Not the greeting of a friend
but yet a trap
pulling him towards

His death

His death

much like

young Joseph, sold by (his) brothers

INTERLUDE

Sold him

Sold him

Handed him over to the
Men of the law
Yet for a scrap of

Silver

Silver

Though you

Held onto our money

Daily

Daily

With your brethren and he, you
Healed the sick
And drove out the

Devils

Devils

(But) you let

The Devil draw you
That night

============================================

It is not
My enemy, who shames me
But a friend, brother

(You) raised your hands
Against those who
Trusted you

Lifting up
Your heel

(Your speech was smoother than) Rich butter
(But) your heart was war

And your words
Although soft
(Were) drawn swords
