Becoming the Lamb of God

The stuff of heaven
grace within him
God’s love of man
the clay of his body
born like us
of the dust of the earth
Your Spirit upon him
giving him life
sent for Your purpose
into Your world
becoming the lamb of God
offering himself for us
that we would be redeemed
brought back into God’s presence
from the darkness
into the light.
