THE SON OF GOD


After Christ’s pathway of perfection

In secret, in man’s situation,

His place as Son in God’s affection

Was marked by God’s annunciation.


Seeing Christ did not need to wrestle

To assert control in the creation

The twelve knew, as He joined their vessel,

The Son of God by observation.


And that was good - but saints would rather,

Knowing God’s joy in the relation,

Like Peter learn now from the Father

The Son of God by revelation.


Before Christ’s toil had its fruition

God gave in the transfiguration

The witness to His new position -

The Son of God in elevation.
