The Apostles, Op. 49, Pt.2: IVa. The Betrayal

Narrator 1:

And it came to pass that He went throughout every city and village, preaching and shewing the glad tidings of the kingdom of God: and the Twelve were with Him

And He began to teach them, that the Son of man must suffer many things and be rejected, and be killed.

Chorus:

'I will smite the Shepherd, and the sheep of the flock shall be scattered abroad.'

Peter:

Be it far from Thee, Lord, this shall never be unto Thee.

Though all men shall be offended because of Thee, yet will I never be offended.

John, Judas and Apostles Chorus:

Though we should die with Thee, yet will we not deny Thee.
