Sheer Grace

Incarnation
root from the stump of Jesse
the Divine becomes human
flesh from a Virgin
praise be to God
peace to His people
on earth
on earth
on earth
He came to earth
bringing hope
humus
on earth
to suffer
like we suffer
to redeem suffering
to put a whupping on death
and sin, our dang sin,
and why did He
"sheer grace"
to quote Augustine,
"sheer grace"
