a king, a humble servant

a king, a humble servant
not garbed in gold, in purple
walking with the people
common, like them
a mode of submission
of giving our lives fully
no affect, no pretense
fully authentic in life
a king, a humble servant
not needing his crown
Christ, in his submission
proclaiming his identity, authority
who he truly was
