Not one stone upon another by LIJ Red

How so like men to blame the lamb
to hang him high and slash his throat
to say that Jah will spare, not damn
the ones who stone the poor scapegoat.

Were priests the masters of the lie
which words were from the great I am
"The soul that sinneth it shall die."
or "Hang and gut a pleading lamb."

The smoke of Hell still filled the air
when Titus strode into that room
He shook his head, saw nothing there
and marched back out of empty gloom.

The Lord had gone, the Temple fell
the veil once ripped had set us free
from all the blood and burning smell
for He now lives in you and me.
