"When Jesus wept a trembling fear shook all the guilty world around."
Religious Chant
"Jesus wept." is the shortest verse in the King James edition of the Christian Bible

on the soul
of humanity
he bled
deep
crimson
red
a crown
of thorns
cutting
into his head
his tears
giving
hope to
those on
their death beds
i am the resurrection and the life
he said
than for the sins
of the unborn child
he wept
he wept
he wept
as the little child
on the threshold
of his mothers womb
looked up at jesus face
in dread smiled
faintly
peacefully slept
