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
