Like None Before Him

This one priest
the lamb, the sacrifice
going where none could follow
climbing up onto the cross
to become God’s sacrifice

Giving himself for us
taking on our sin
glorified in his obedience
and the father with him

His life prepared for this day
his passion revealing
the fulfillment of all prophecy
he alone sealing the breach
since the fall of man
bringing us back to God
