In the Church of All Nations - Gethsemane

A beautiful place, busy with the prayers of pilgrims.
Full of many languages, many stories.
A Mass ending - in words I did not understand, but know.

A stone before the altar, Jesus wept and feared, cried and entrusted.
Agony and acceptance - impossible to comprehend.

People kneeling, praying, weeping, trusting.

For all who are betrayed;
For the times I feel betrayed;
For all I might betray;
For the times I betray you dear Lord -
Hear my prayer,
Have mercy.
