From Isaiah 53:7: “He was oppressed, and He was afflicted, yet He did not open His mouth; like a lamb that is led to the slaughter, and like a sheep that before its shearers is silent, so He did not open his mouth.”
From Eden’s lush garden
Man’s sin corrupting all
God sees Calvary’s cross
Jesus accepts His call
God comes to earth as Christ
Son of God walks in light
Fallen world can’t crush Him
Darkness loses this fight
Jesus never wavers
Father’s plan never rests
World quakes under evil
His Son conquers each test
Like sheep, man has strayed
Lost in darkness and sin
Wheels of life falling off
Cross restores life’s linchpin
Do you truly believe?
Righteous Son pours self out
Sin’s death now defeated
Step forward, never doubt
From Isaiah 53:11: “Out of His anguish He shall see light; He shall find satisfaction through His knowledge. The righteous one, my servant, shall make many righteous, and He shall bear their iniquities.”
