Blessed Scapegoat in Red / PSALMS OF PRAISE / By Anonymous servant Bloody drippings, a rich red,from thorns about your head. Bloody, deep stripes,from heavy-handed brutes waling in delight. Bloody eyes, swollen and black,from fists clenched in belittling attack. Bloody holes, hands and feet,from wicked hammer blows indiscreet. Bloody side, gashed and ripped open,from a spear thrust but in token. Bloody, and forsaken,while the world’s sin upon you was taken. … Though mocked, and laughed to scorn,by a crowd but by you reborn,you drank our cup of pain,that heaven might be vicariously gained. Thank you great savior God…
