Matthias Replaces Judas

It is so that my transgressions have born a withered fruit

The sun has scorched the rising plans, alas they have no root

The bleached bones of animals bound by leather strips

Dance through the air with laughter as I wield this wicked whipAs you did warn me carpenter, this world has weakened my heart

So easily I disparage, self-seeking the work of my art

And there you have come to me, at the moment I bathe in my sorrow

So in love with myself, sought after avoiding tomorrowWhere do you find the love to offer he who betrays you?

And offer to wash my feet as I offer to disobey you

Your beauty does bereave me, and how my words do fail

So faithfully and dutifully I award you with betrayalThe weak and the down trodden fall on broken legs

As I walk past a smile I cast, fervor in my stead

But my bones like plastic, do buckle backward now

I lay in this field by Judas', anticipate the plowI cannot be forgiven, my wages will be paid

For those more lovely and admirable is least among the saved

And where would I fit, Jesus? What place is left for me?

The price of atonement is more than I've found to offer up as my pleaJesus, my heart is all I have to give to you, so weak and so unworthy

This simply will not do, no alabaster jar, no diamond in the rough

For your body that was broken, how can this be enough?

By me you were abandoned, by me you were betrayedYet in your arms and in your heart forever I have stayed

Your glory illuminates my life, and no darkness will descend

For you have lived forever and your love will never end
