Love Came Down - Poem by Raymond A. Foss

An embodiment, in the flesh
God, Love, came down
down to our earth
to this good earth

The Christ, the Messiah
fulfillment of prophecy
the stem of Jesse
leading a righteous life

The Son, the unblemished lamb
offering for our sin
born to die on Calvary
that we may be made clean

The king, our salvation
rising from the dead
waiting for us in heaven
when we leave this mortal coil
