You Came

You couldn’t be kept from inhabiting flesh
And entering the beautiful mess

You yearned for that day
Willingly gave your rights away

With great, exceeding joy 
Born as a human boy

And exhumed the latent role
Of taking back all the enemy stole

On that night all of heaven exclaimed
The King has come to reclaim!

From a little boy you grew
In stature and wisdom as a Jew 

To a man of sorrows who stood
In the depths of human pain, understood 

Taught and spoke such truth with love
Ate and drank and laughed thereof

How people were drawn to your side
Never was a man so fully alive 

Never fearing or doubting the One
Who sent you to show His compassionate love

For such a joy set before you
You drank the cup we were due

And how you loved being among us
Not disdaining our weakness

Full acceptance, words so gracious 
Calling forth our truest essence 

Setting every captive free
To know you, be known and see

Yeshua—- so worthy of worshipping 
Your coming changed everything
