there at the Jordan
in entering the waters
there at Gethsemane
falling to his knees
there in the temple
as the priests spit at
him
there on Golgotha
when he climbed the tree
self-emptying love
unmerited grace
living, dying
taking my place
Christ’s choice to save
to descend, to rise up
life in our Savior
our king at last
