You are the Messiah,
the one sent from God;
who shows us
what it is like when God’s spirit
bubbles from within.
You are the one in harmony
with all creation;
who might just persuade
the lion and the lamb
to lie down together.
You are the one whose words
challenge and delight,
skipping childlike in the rain;
who changes enemies into friends,
tears into laughter,
anger into hope,
fear into freedom.
You are the one who calls
liberty out of bondage,
light out of darkness,
life out of death.
You are love;
the one in whom we live and move
and have our being.
You are the Messiah,
child of the God
whose life is everywhere.
