The Communion All the Sinners

Judas dipped his hand into the bowl,
eating bread he'd helped to break:
Your back-stabbed body broken
for him.

Lord, they took
(and ate)
Your body
on that Calv'ry hill,
praying between mouthfuls:
"Forgive us, Father, for we know not what we do."

O Sinners, Let's Go Down

Rub-a-dub-dub, three men in a tub:
preacher, penitent, holy ghost.
The ghost cries Marco,
the penitent Polo,
and the preacher says Amen.
