Deaut 16:1-8

For the Lord you must honour.

As you remember the former

Those old days of slavery

And how he released me.

Now you can make a sacrifice.

As you follow his advice.

For now you know why.

A lamb had to die.

As the sun rises from east

Eat bread without yeast.

To recognise your need.

As on the lamb you do feed.

Lk. 22:39-71

Times are so bad

Makes Jesus terribly sad

Bit determine still.

To go out on a hill

For his unearned arrest.

And the disciples great test.

For what he was born.

Man has only scorn.

Peter denies.

His hope all but dies.

Jesus just will look.

As his honour men took.

Mth. 26:17:28

We come to the communion table.

There confess we are not able.

To ourselves overcome.

The evil one.

Without the sacrifice of Gods lamb.

Whose blood was spilt for man.

Recognising just why.

Although we would deny.

And that we would never

Disown him ever.
