Text
Priests, People, Soldiers:
No!
What is it we have done?
For heavenīs sake, what is it we have done?
Priests:
The curtain in the temple,
our highest and our holiest:
Torn up! To shreds! In tatters!
The world, it breaks and tears and shakes
now we, the priests, have captured him.
People:
The ground we've always lived on
breaks open, and we're tumbling:
No grasp! No death! No living!
The world, it breaks and tears and shakes
now we, the crowds, have laughed at him.
Soldiers:
Our soldiers' knees are buckling,
our iron laws are faltering:
That cross! That crown! That kingdom!
The world, it breaks and tears and shakes
now we, the troops, have finished him.
Priests, People, Soldiers:
Life will never be the same.
What is it we have done?
