odd thomas - the incarnation lyrics
what good is the christmas story if it’s void of god and his glory?
what’s the worth of the words ’peace on earth’ if it’s not rooted in christ’s birth?
what benefit is it for us in discussing the joy of the season
unless we fix our hearts and our minds on the reason that christ has atoned for us?
see christmas is more than just a story of a baby born in a manger
it’s more than a poor fiancé engaged to a humble virgin teenager
more than a magi, more than gold, frankincense and myrrh
it’s more than just a nativity scene, it was so much more that occurred
it’s the coming of the messiah, the fulfillment of all old testament promises
the prophecy of the suffering servant and all of his accomplishments
the second person of the trinity commissioned to abandon his position
and set aside the independent exercise of his attributes in full submission
the word manifested in the flesh, the fullness of god expressed
the self-emptying jesus poured out at the father’s request
the image of the invisible god, the radiance of the father’s fame
holy, but retained his humanness to empathize with our pain
the one unjustly crushed, chastised, cursed and shamed
mocked and adorned with a crown of th-rns, disgraced but still faced the grave
to fulfill the father’s will, to come and die in the place of men
and receive the full weight of god’s judgement upon himself instead
the most monumental mark for mankind made in human history
wretched sinners being made righteous by the wounds of the risen king
the condescending of a holy god made in the likeness of men
this child born to be the savior that would save the world from its sins
the offspring of the virgin’s womb
the christ, god’s only son
fully god, yet fully man, the only theanthropic one
this is everything we celebrate, christ the newborn king
veiled in flesh, the godhead see
hail the incarnate deity
