Christ, choosing to become human
into the world, a humble piece of clay
walking with our brothers, our sisters
the saints long before us
sharing his message, the love of God
Living a life, as we do day to day;
but offering us a better way
Following the master
even to the cross
drinking the cup of his destiny
so that me may find our way
to the other side, across the chasm
our free will keeping us
from the love of God
Turning himself
a king a servant
so we would see the light
our path through the darkness
settling into
our heavenly home
