 The Ultimate Betrayal

a lyric by Alan Ewing

 

 

 





Trust was put in him,

but he betrayed without a care;

he committed the ultimate sin.

By giving over one so fair.


Thirty pieces of silver in hand,

he received his pay.

The world was just a grain of sand

In the universe on that fateful day.


Oh! Judas, you fool, you fool!

For playing satan's game.

Couldn't you see that you were just a tool?

For the assault upon The Holiest Name.


Oh! Modern churches unify,

In His Holy Name.

Sectarian interests multiply:

you have only yourselves to blame.


For is this not also betrayal?

To segregate His words.

Substituting conflict and dogma,

for the true message being heard ...
