“My heart is troubling me now.
Let this hour wait, I can say how?
Father, the purpose I came here,
At this hour, is it not to suffer? ”
“Bring glory to Thy name,
Father, for the reason same
To this world I came
Let ‘Glory’ be thy name.”
Thus, when Jesus spoke,
A voice from sky that broke,
Said, “Glory, I’ve brought.
Once again I’ll bring it.”
The crowd heard the voice.
It was a thunder's noise
Some thought for a while.
Others took it as an angel.”
Jesus told them, “Not for me
This voice spoke to me,
For you, it spoke the truth,
So, you’ll get more faith.”
“To judge this world,
Time has come, as I told,
The present rule will end
Up above when I’m lifted.”
“Then I’ll draw everyone
To my side, one by one.”
By these words, what he meant
Was his death, at any moment.
The crowd asked, “Who’s this
Son of Man, a Messiah he is,
Who’ll not die, but live forever,
Tells so our Law and Scripture.”
Jesus replied, “A little longer
The light will be with you here.
It will show you your way
Till darkness comes in its way.”
“You believe in the light
That leads your life bright.
For you may not know,
In darkness, where you go.”
Such powerful words he said,
And the miracles all he did,
Yet, there were disbelievers
Who did not recognize Jesus.
Some Pharisees and Jews,
Though believed in Jesus,
Openly they didn’t say it
For fear of the High Priest.

The awesome foreknowledge of Jesus displayed in these verses. It is wonderful that some believed. Sad that some did not. Beautiful write, Simon. Warm regards, Sandra
