When they came near Jerusalem,
a large crowd praised God in loud voices: God bless the king who comes in the
name of the Lord! Hosanna in the highest!"
It was the week of the parade
the roadside crowds delighted in
their pretender taking his throne
this is the way to riot the
crowds
this is the way of love
He began to drive out the
merchants shouting: My temple will be a house of prayer, not a hideout for
thieves, and he drove them out.
It was the week of the temple
and the priests saw to it this
pretender would have his throne
this is the way to conspiracy
this is the way of love
Jesus went to the home of
Lazarus and Mary took half a litre of expensive perfume and poured it on Jesus’
feet, and wiped them with her hair.
It was the week of anointing
the perfume had been saved for
the pretender without a throne
this is the way to unbalance the
establishment
this is the way of love
When they came to the place
called The Skull, they crucified Jesus there and Jesus said, “Forgive them!
They don’t know what they are doing."
It was the week of torture
the nails had been prepared to
nail the pretender to his throne
this is the way to establish
peace
this is the way of love
A large crowd followed him as
he was led away, among them were some women, weeping. Jesus turned to them:
Don’t cry for me, but for yourselves and your children."
It was the week of the cross
the wood had been waiting for the
pretender to take his throne
this is the way to silence the
disturber
this is the way of love
