a fool for you and for me

a vessel, a lamb
drinking of that cup
the bile of our sin
all of the world
the weight of our iniquity
all we had done, said
all our estrangement from God

Christ, Messiah
our Prince of Peace
emptied, made of clay
walking that journey
the path God set
submissive to the Father
sharing His Word

a fool, for you and for me
Christ making himself a vessel
taking the whips, the chains
carrying our cross
not of this world
giving us new life
a hope of a life in Him
