pierced, crushed, and punished – v2

the babe they gazed on
the One that was promised
whose birth was foretold
the ancient words of scripture
God’s Suffering Servant
the Messiah of old, of this moment,
pierced, crushed, and punished
for us, taking our place
Christ, the babe in the manger
the man upon the cross
Christ’s life preordained, destined
to fulfill these ancient words
to be our sacrifice, the Lamb;
By His wounds we are healed
redeemed from the lost.
