O Jesus, Jesus -
the Man of Galilee,
The Man who came to
make His people free:
The Man whose Person
is of so high degree
They were repelled
when He answered “I am He!",
Yet who was sold
for such a paltry fee;
Despite His sorrows
that Man refused to flee
But took the way
which led Him to the tree;
The Man who always
hears the sinner's plea;
The Man whose glory
the universe will see.
In their response
to the divine decree
All living things
to Him will bow the knee:
Oh Jesus, Jesus -
the Man who died for me.
Writing this sequence I began to feel that the verse was moving forward like waves. So this begins a wave of laises relating to names, offices and titles of the Lord Jesus.
Beautiful!
