God
King of the universe
stepped down from His throne
to ride a dusty donkey.

God
King of the universe
stepped down from His throne
to hang on a cursed cross.

God 
King of the universe
stepped down from His throne
to lay low in a gruesome grave.

God
King of the universe
stepped down from His throne
to lift us up and out of our own.

God 
King of the universe
stepped down from His throne
so we could do more
than lay palms of joy in His path.

God
King of the universe
stepped down from His throne
so we could lay down
our very lives before His feet.

God
stepped down
to be with us,
so we could lay down
to be with Him.
Thank you,
Thank you,
Thank you.

Amen.
