His life, His ministry
His purpose here on earth
to show us the way
the law and the prophets
the word of God
come to life before our eyes
His life as a lamb
a servant of all
Choosing the suffering,
the cross,
the tomb,
the resurrection
so that we may live
As his disciples,
as the children of God
we are called not to a throne
but a towel at our waist
to follow his path
a servant of all
so that others may live
