Thirty Pieces Of Silver
Lyricist:Odell Mcleod
It's a sad but true story from the Bible it came And it tells us how Judas sold the Savior in shame He planed with the counsel of high priest that day Thirty pieces of silver was the price they would pay
Thirty pieces of silver, thirty shekels of shame Was the price paid for Jesus, on the cross He was slain Betrayed and forsaken unloved and unclaimed In anger they pierced Him but He died not in vain
'Twas there on the hillside the multitude came And found our dear Savior then took Him away Find more lyrics at ※ Mojim.com They smote Him and they mocked Him Torn the crown 'round His head
And His raiment of purple showed the blood stains of red Far off in the mountain with face toward the sun Judas begged for mercy for what he had done He gave back the silver for his heart filled with strife And there in the mountain, he took his own life
Thirty pieces of silver, thirty shekels of shame Was the price paid for Jesus, on the cross He was slain
