His life, the fulfillment, the prophecy of
old
his life, his ministry, his burial in the
tomb
woven into the gifts, the three, the wise
men
the gold, frankincense, and myrrh they
brought him
The king, the priest, the martyr on the
cross
living humbly, teaching another way, dying
for our sins
the light, the one foretold, the Messiah
who came
The word, the living, the risen Lord
shoot of Jesse, carpenter’s son, God
incarnate
at the beginning, Emmanuel, judge at his
return
The bread, the lamb, the way
To him, for him, for us all throughout time
was given the gold, the frankincense, and
myrrh
by the wise men, traveling from the east,
to his bed
