The full extent of Christ’s love

Christ knowing the hour
that his time had come
the Master becoming the servant
humble, on the ground
his back bare to them
to share the full extent of his love
our Savior, servant-king
washing the disciples’ feet
so they would be clean
prepared for the feast
the new command to love
