Gold, Frankincense and Myrrh – v10

The life of Jesus, the fulfillment of scripture, the prophecy of old
His life, His ministry, His burial in the tomb
woven into the gifts, the three offerings, the wise men
the gold, frankincense, and myrrh they brought him to Jesus

The king, the priest, the martyr on the cross
living humbly, teaching another way, dying for our sins

The Word, the Living Water, the Risen Lord
shoot of Jesse, carpenter’s son, God Incarnate
at the beginning, Emmanuel, the judge at His return

The Bread, the Lamb, the Way
To Him, for Him, for us all throughout time
was given the gold, the frankincense, and myrrh
by the wise men, traveling from the east, to His humble bed
