KISS OF
JUDAS, KISS OF DEATH
God had devised a Master plan,
And the end was about to start.
His Son He sent to earth to die,
And Judas would play a part.
Treasurer to the twelve,
Is the position he was given
When Christ gave Judas this task, He
knew,
By money he was driven.
His love for money filled his heart,
And every time he stole,
Satan would get a piece of him,
‘Til he finally had his soul.
For Satan also had a plan,
In which Jesus would have to die.
To bring his plan to fruition,
On Judas he would rely.
Thirty pieces of silver were offered,
To Judas, whose heart was cold.
By this friend, His chosen disciple,
The Son of God was sold.
The twelve were having supper,
With Jesus, it would be their last.
Christ broke the bread and poured the
wine,
Then to each the communion was passed.
“Someone here will betray me,”
Said Jesus to them that day.
“Is it I,” “Is it I,” the disciples
asked.
Judas then ran away.
Judas was God’s instrument,
But he still had a choice,
Though he was called to learn from
Christ,
He chose to ignore His voice.
Jesus went to the garden,
With three of his friends to pray.
But guess who came with soldiers,
And gave his location away.
“Which is Jesus,” the soldiers asked,
“I’ll kiss him,” Judas said.
And so the kiss of Judas,
Became the kiss of death.
Jesus was whipped and spat upon,
They treated Him like dung.
He was forced to carry a cross up a
hill,
And on it He was hung.
The devil was done with Judas.
And Judas was filled with strife.
He came to his senses, then was so distraught,
He chose to end his life.
Jesus also died,
And so the story goes,
Though he was placed in a borrowed
grave,
On the third day he arose.
“The fall” of Adam and Eve,
And every person in every nation,
Was by Christ’s death forgiven;
His death brought us salvation.
Satan’s little plan was foiled.
It is now clearly understood,
What Judas meant for evil,
God meant for the good.
