A fulfillment, a living out –
prophets told his story
long before he was born,
proving identity, a servant
a savior, a king
foretold in scripture
acted out in the
singular life
of the man from Nazareth.
Steps written down,
a charted life
scripted from beginning
to the very end
ordered steps,
a path foretold
fulfilling history
proclaiming hope
