Born a Child and Yet a King

Born under the most humble of circumstance:
Firstborn of Joseph and Mary,
Carpenter and homemaker--
Not even born in His hometown.
Born to live in a backwater:
"Can any good thing come out of Nazareth?"
What kind of reputation He took with Him:
Just a carpenter's son from that kind of locale.
Just thought that but truly--
The Creator of all that exists,
The Sustainer of all the exists,
The Judge of all that exists--
Descended from glory to dwell
Not only with man but as man,
Incarnate Immanuel--God and man--fully both.
Sinless life for sinners to be given
That we can be reconciled to the holy God and
Eternally forgiven.
In His first coming, meek and mild, born that Child,
In His second coming, in full kingly might and glory.
Maranatha!
