A Shining Example – v2

A shining example of God’s love
tangible, clear, authentic
in His life, the story of the Christ
His brief ministry paving the way
a well of living water, the legacy
His life poured out, given

A life cut short, part of God’s plan
the submission of his own will
taking the cup of sacrifice
its taste on his lips

Teaching the disciples
concrete stories, his parables
showing us all how to live
Humble servanthood
toward our neighbors
and before our God.
