The King of the Jews
Born; all the prophets' words
Verified in the Amen.
Taking His place among
The poor of the flock, see the Just One
Fulfilling all righteousness.
Acclaimed in baptism;
Acclaimed on the mount:
See God's Beloved!
Never have words been said
With such dignity: "Not my will
But thine be done".
Without blemish;
Without spot:
The Lamb for the offering.
Where the excellence
Always existed, the fire
Released the fragrance.
The four evangelists
Wrote, by the Holy Spirit,
Their holy narratives.
Worthy of homage;
Worthy of honour:
The ascending Man.
(This is another thinking of the things in Philippians 4: 8)
