Christ was Less

God on Earth was homeless
when Jesus was a babe.
The Almighty appeared so helpless
when in the manger laid.

And found once too as penniless
He asked men for a coin
to teach the world a lesson
tried their reason to enjoin.

One day the Lord stood friendless
as His friends all ran away;
but alone, He was the fullness
on the cross on Judgment day.

But in all this was fearless
as He did the Father’s will;
was crucified though blameless
and the Scriptures did fulfill.

Taken down, once lifeless
laid in a borrowed grave
But what He did was priceless
He shed his precious blood to save.
