The debt Christ didn’t owe

choosing the cross
a path God had written
dying for the lost
that we may live again;
descended from glory
taking on the yoke
the mantle of the Servant
become the Sacrifice

putting on our sin, our shame
a garment, heavy
the debt Christ didn’t owe
going to the cross;
become the Lamb
an offering, perfect,
dying that we might live
if we will follow His example

choosing servanthood
humbly going, doing
the Master’s will
the work of Salvation;
putting on the tomb
a cloak of death
rising in victory
going as He was led
