Repairing Our Brokenness

Christ, the babe, the man
up out of the waters
into his desert times
claiming Isaiah
the words of the prophet
fulfilled in his coming to earth

To set us free,
from whatever our chains
those of others or ourselves
leading us home
back to our Lord
through the blood
his life, we are redeemed

Repairing our brokenness
lifting our sin
the stain, the struggles, our cares
offering us hope
joy in this life
and treasures
in the life to come
