Lord Jesus, you experienced
what it was like
when the crowds pressed in on
you.
People thought you were out
of your mind--
later they said the same
about Paul.
From the depths of Sheol deliver
our souls,
for great is your steadfast love
for us.
We will return to you, and
wait for you,
and hold fast to love and
justice.
