ROME

ROME

As I stand before authorities and magistrates

accused of certain crimes

to appear before the counsel

of an unjust trial

Innocent but treated as guilty

 to all in Rome who are loved by God and called His holy people

called His holy people

those in captivity 

those oppressed by Jewish officials and customs

that released a insurrectionist and murderer instead of one with clean hands

this empire wasn't built in a day

are we citizens of Rome or ambassadors of the High one

friends of Ceasar or enemies of the truth

For if the people do these things when the tree is green

what will happen when it is dry?
