THE SAME

Yesterday –
Before the foundation of the world –
The Same.
Today –
Enthroned at the Father's right hand –
The Same.


To the ages to come –
In rule or in subjection –
The Same.


Yet the Personage
To secure God's purpose,
“Became flesh ...”


To be Saviour,
And to display God's love
“Became dead”.


To sustain those
Sustained by divine affection
“Became surety
of a better covenant”.
