My hands are stained with Your blood.
I was the one screaming: "GUILTY!!!"
I was the one beating and torturing You mercilessly.
I was the one who spat on You.
I was the one who jeered at You.
I was the one who followed You up The Skull.
I was the one who stripped You.
I was the one who broke Your bones.
I was the one who drove the spikes into
Your wrists and ankles.
I was the one who placed the crown of thorns
on Your brow.
I was the one who who carved and placed
the sign above You in jest.
It read: "Here is the King of the Jews."
I was the one who watched You struggle to breathe.
I was the one who heard You cry out to God.
"Father forgive them for they know not what they do."
"Father why have you forsaken me?"
I was the one who saw You lift Your head
and cry out: "IT IS FINISHED!!!"
I was the one who then saw You breathe Your last.
I was the one who stabbed a spear
through Your side.
I was the one who watched Your body taken
down with such care.
I was the one who watched as You were wrapped
in linen.
I was the one who watched You carried away by
Your beloved.
I was the one who saw You placed
in a borrowed tomb.
I was the one who witnessed a mighty big rock
placed over the entrance.
I was the one who watched Your family come
to mourn over You.
I was the one who saw the rock had been removed.
I was the one who saw that the tomb was empty.
My hands are stained with Your blood.
