Christ’s Obedience


such a contrast
between Christ and Adam
one who knew no sin
one who sinned against God

for Adam one law
not the commandments
even one law to much
how quickly he broke it

for Christ obedience
though knowing the sins
all the choices of Adams
from the beginning to end

all the sin of humanity
for the ages
from the beginning of time
to the end of the age

Christ’s obedience
to God, the Father
without end, agape
the love of a friend

Adam died,
leading us to death
Christ died
to rise us to life
