Throwback to Godspell - By My Side


8. By My Side
"Then one of the Twelve - the one called Judas Iscariot - went to the chief priests and asked,'What are you willing to give me if I deliver him over to you?' So they counted out for him thirty pieces of silver. From then on Judas watched for an opportunity to hand him over."
                              Matthew 26:14-16
     This does not conclude the list of songs on the Godspell movie soundtrack, but it is the last of the songs I had written out scripture notes for when I was young. I am following up in this same post with a song from contemporary times by Tenth Avenue North called "By Your Side." Its message expresses the purpose for the story told in the songs of Godspell. And so, though I have linked to it before, it finds a good home here at the end of this series.
