At once a spotless lamb,
with naked throat stretched forth
upon a sacrificial blade extended out,
And a righteous warrior,
at the ready with a red hat's drop
to draw forth a sword and wave it about.
Made to be like Him, first
swaddled oh so baby tight,
making the best of a lowly manger,
Then later, robed as a King,
riding a horse made for war,
ready to battle every sign of danger.
He gave us whole His heart,
split in twain, one a lamb's love
full of never ending Mercy and Grace,
The other a warrior's might,
heroism made for epic stuff,
always there to fight sin face-to-face.
Who but God could be so,
two in one, and who could know,
this warrior's greatest weapon
is His very life?
