ISAIAH 53:3

HE WAS DESPISED AND REJECTED OF MEN
A MAN OF SORROWS AND ACQUAINTED WITH GRIEF
AND AS ONE FROM WHOM MEN HIDE THEIR FACES
HE WAS DESPISED
and we esteemed him not.

Isaiah tugs on my bones in the dying body
but i can only thrash for this comprehension unattainable
for me it is all too far removed
i can't understand your exegesis
i only know i must draw nearer to the one who took it for me
because HOW DEEP THE FATHER'S LOVE FOR US
i cannot understand that i was there, i was there, O Christ I was there and
remain there daily
[Judas sold you for thirty, I'D HAVE DONE IT FOR LESS]

what could i possibly ever do to warrant this affection
as i listen to these voices sing sanctus
i cannot understand i am finally speechless there is nothing
but these haunting melodies and the image of your beautiful face
taking it for me, when there weren't words to ask for it
i shall never attain this knowing here
seventy times seven today i've let you down, i've turned my back on it all
but i am still here; you were here all along; there is a tomorrow;
soon the children will look to the eastern sky,
but until then,



Hosanna, Hosanna, Hosanna in exelsis Deo.
