Palmesøndag 03:57
Palm Sunday Jesus he rode, oh Jesus he rode Into Jerusalem on some kind of goat The crowd was waving with palm tree leaves And placed them on the ground as he upheaved The people knew him, they knew it would pass Because the prophets had foretold that he wide ride in on some kind of ass The Jews the yelled, they yelled for Messiah Though his name was Jesus, it was an alias For the man, the man who would bring forth peace From the Romans, the Romans, whose injustice increased The people knew him, they knew it would pass Because the prophets had foretold that he wide ride in on some kind of ass Jesus rode – with peace he rode Into Jerusalem on some kind of goat On a goat – yes, he rode On a goat Into Jerusalem on a goat Jesus he set the mule out of motion And went to the temple to stop the commotion This he soon would grow to regret For the pharasees would not let the new guy forget The people knew him, they knew it would pass Because the prophets had foretold that he would ride in on some kind of ass Now it was clear, the man was in trouble His list of enemies was about to double A conspiracy born, would soon turn to a farce When Judas he aided some men with Kippahs The pharasees used up a poor man, a liar 30 silver coins would mean the death of Messiah.

Maundy Thursday (Gethsemane) When they leave this table sheet There'll be whispers of what was left Born when Jesus bathed the feet So hope would never be bereft Even when backs have been turned In the bitter end and grief Forgiveness will be the lesson learned Absolution has been reached Behold the anxiety, a fate so grim A downward gaze his face does hide Listen, silenced is the hymn Jesus in his dad confides “This cup: bitter, full and sour Let it vanish, let it be gone But if this must be my hour Then so it be, thy will be done”

Skærtorsdag 04:47
Maundy Thursday Remember this sacrificial lamb Remember this living bread With it falter all the damned All our misery and dread And drink your wine, but remember the blood From which that gift did come Remember the pact that was made with God When my judgement sees me done The shepherd will be hunted down The flock it will be spread Galilee will see once more my crown Resurrected from the dead Peter refused to believe the words he spake And said out loud and clear If I have to die for my brother's sake I'll do it now and here But at the first of the rooster's crows Peter said: “I understand not” At the second crow, his weakness did grow “No, I know him not” But worse yet, it was that night The priests knew, it was too late It turned out Jesus was just right A kiss did seal his fate By one betrayed, by one bereft For money and from fear Captured by soldiers, no one left To shout: “flee, over here!” A gruesome and babaric tale Would turn to celebration The pharasees, oh they did fail The prohpecy swept the nation
