Like an adult enrolled in a nursery
a Phi Beta Kappa
God descending
walking as a child
Love descending
grace without ending
aching for our
turning from Him
God coming
as a lowly child
emptied of what is holy
made with feet of clay
Yet pure, unblemished
a worthy sacrifice
going to the cross
to wash away our sin
Living as a servant
healing and teaching
training us to follow
the calling of our God
Guiding us to turn
from our sinful pasts
walking ever closer
to Almighty God
By His example going
on before us
the first-born of the resurrection
preparing a way for us to live
