Marvel at the Man

"Then came Jesus forth, wearing the crown of thorns, and the purple robe. And Pilate saith unto them, Behold the Man! .... Behold your King!" (John 19:5,14).

Behold the Man that sinners mocked,
God incarnate, perfect Man.
Angels watch, dumfounded, shocked,
Stunned at God's unfolding plan.

Behold your King comes meek and lowly,
Though He is the great I Am,
Over all transcendent, holy,
Mighty God, and spotless Lamb.

Behold the Man! Behold your King
Claims His victory from the grave!
He Who has removed Death's sting,
Ever lives henceforth to save!
