Why Jesus?

JESUS was born,
That I might be born twice.

HE became poor,
That I might possess wealth.

HE became homeless,
That I might have mansions.

HE was stripped,
That I always should have clothes.

HE was forsaken,
That I always should have friends.

HE was bound,
That I might have perfect liberty.

HE was sad,
That I might have full joy.

HE descended,
That I should be lifted up.

HE became a servant,
That I might be a son forever.

HE was hungry,
That I should always have food.

HE was made sin,
That I should share HIS righteousness.

HE died,
That I should never taste Eternal death.

HE will come down,
That I might go up.

All of this -- that HE might display in me the riches of HIS grace
And be the companion of God in the heavenlies.
