1. A Man Of Karioth, Praised
2. The Ballad Of Judas Iscariot
1. A Man Of Karioth, Praised
Vile,
False Brethren of the Apostolate,
The Strength was Yours - Darkness, Thy might
Treacherous soul, unregenerated and pure,
To abandon…
To abandon the Foolish, followers of the Weak;
- faithfull Disciples,
Stabbed in the back - Eternally deceived.
Vile,
False Brethren of the Apostolate,
The Night was Yours - Darkness, Thy guide.
Treacherous heart, gradually hardened,
To betray…
To betray the One, sheppard of the Weak;
- omnipotent Savior,
Sold for a fistful of coins.
Judas, calculating tool,
…we shall never forget!!
2. The Ballad Of Judas Iscariot
For months and years, in grief and tears,
He walked the silent night;
Then the soul of Judas Iscariot
Perceived a far-off light.
A far-off light across the waste,
As dim as dim might be,
That came and went like the lighthouse gleam
On a black night at sea.
'Twas the soul of Judas Iscariot
Crawl'd to the distant gleam;
And the rain came down, and the rain was blown
Against him with a scream.
For days and nights he wandered on,
Push'd on by hands behind;
And the days went by like black, black rain,
And the nights like rushing wind.
'Twas the soul of Judas Iscariot,
Strange, and sad, and tall,
Stood all alone at dead of night
Before a lighted hall.
- Excerpt from a poem by Robert Buchanan.
