in our likeness

He that was holy, divine,
the word, there from before
the night from the day
before the void came alive
He was born, came to this earth
in our likeness, in the image of man
to live as a sacrifice, a servant,
humbly following the master’s will
the father’s plan for his life
becoming the lamb,
the first-born son
sacrificed to wipe away sin
he had to become man
to live in our likeness
to make us whole
bringing us back home
