Understanding the Christ

Understanding the Christ-child
in the way he came into the world
not like a king, the Caesar
humbly born, in a stable
laid in a manger bed

Come to serve, not to rule
love come down to the earth
sacrifice, by his choosing
reconciling us to God
in the way he left this earth
