What witchcraft these magicians bring, Foretelling the birth of another King? The throne is mine! - and justly earned ( collaboration pays it's wage ). I cannot - must not - will not be spurned. The deception, the homage, a malevolent command; The soldiers, the swords, an order that must be obeyed. Isaiah speaking from the grave: The screaming starts - it cannot be stayed The shrieks, the wails, the terror, the blood, The tiny victims - demons' food As mother Rachel's heart is flayed. A baby holocaust in a Jerusalem suburb Erased! - The threat of royal pollution. King Herod wrought his final solution. The horror ends, the deed is done But one escapes - a precious one - So did God spare His only son ? |
