Was it worth the Price?
30 pieces of silver!….
To betray the man you called Master
The one who loved you
And whom you claimed to love!
I dare say not!
Is it worth the price?
The pain of her pleading wail
The shredded heart and rend pieces
That could never be put together again
You betrayed for a few pieces of notes
I dare say not!
Is it worth the price
To walk in the path of light
To look up above and see Christ
As he guides us aright
Leading gently, if we choose to follow
I dare say yes!
