by the words Christ omitted
the language of his people
focus on Israel
on the chosen people
by the words omitted
expanding our understanding
the words of prophecy
to cover all the nations
The world’s Savior
not just Israel’s Messiah
God’s presence with us
our Lord, Emmanuel
Christ came to save us
all the peoples, the nations
to set the captives free
all those in persecution
