WHEN HE CAME INTO THE WORLD

Not many can speak with certainty why they were born,

But Jesus could and He communed with God at dawn!

From childhood and with each passing year He grew,

To fulfil His Father’s Will- that was what He came to do!

 

He was given Divine Power to perform miracles at will,

But Power never turned His head, His heart remained still.

He had come to do the work that His Father had planned,

He would remain faithful to His Calling to the very end!

He understood the difficulties that would stand in the way,

But His heart was steadfast, He would not give in to dismay.

There would be temptations that were subtle and deceptive,

But to His Father’s Voice, He would always be receptive!

 

He had come into the world as the Scriptures had said,

He would obey completely, that He might raise the dead!

Too many had walked according to their hearts’ desire,

A life of full obedience- this Example must truly inspire!
