The Divine Court of Law

I think I picked another hard topic to cover in 140 syllables. :P I hope it's still decent.

The laws divine are broken, and by whom?
A lowly man, not angel, no, nor beast.
The Judge and lawmaker enters the room
His majesty ennobling e'en the least.
Now the Accuser stands and makes his case;
He says, "This man here broke your righteous laws.
He's vulgar, evil, damnable, and base.
He can't go free; he's full of sinful flaws."
But up stands now Defendant, Witness, all.
He speaks with voice like thunder, yet like dove:
"I take the blame for this man's sinful fall;
My suffering will take his place in love."
The man's acquitted, free to go his way,
But woe if he rejects that joyous day!
