sending your Son Jesus

After the prophets,
beginning with Moses,
God sent his Son, Jesus
to this earth.
His mission here,
to set us free, to open our eyes,
that we may believe.
We are the children
the descendants of these people
come in our time
to set the captives free
by sharing our witness
the testimony of Jesus
to walk ever
in God’s unending light
we are the ones
who others look to
to see what it means
to claim the name Christian,
watching if we are faithful
if we are righteous
if our words match our deeds
