The babe was named Jesus, and then He grew
Into a boy with an interest to learn
He read the Torah and the past Prophets
To sit in the Lord's presence, He did yearn
Though Jesus was Mary and Joseph's son,
He belonged to a heavenly Father
Still, Jesus honoured His earthly parents
For God, He took an obedient posture
Not a rebellious teen or stubborn man
Jesus was sinless at every life stage
The beloved Son desired faithfulness
Kept the fullness of the Law on each page
Jesus was a good human in our place
He was just, compassionate, and truthful
Everything that we fall short to become
He showed what life can be when not futile
Perfection and purity were His walk
Jesus delighted to please God with sincerity
A moral record credited to us
His righteousness was true humanity
