The Humility of Christ Lyrics

INTRO:
Who'd assume that this could be?
God became a Man?

VERSE 1:
Forever before the Creation or there was Satan
The Son was with the Spirit and Father in Glorification
Before worship of fine angels above
The Trinity was in a perfect Triangle of love

Chilled with no one else, no need for others
Coz God is self-sufficient, fulfilled within Himself
And we can only guess the conversation
But the Son agreed to rescue those the Father gave Him

And although this Lord should be worshipped
He volunteered to take upon the form of a Servant
The Father commanded yet asked Him to come
So now let's examine the fashion it was done

Let me ask you if you seem confused with this
God passed through His own creature's uterus
I admit this is odd yet the Bible can persuade me
An omnipotent God crying as a Baby?

No doctors around, no spot could be found
To give birth to a Child, the only option in town
Was to be born in a feeding trough
With breeding cows and feces piles
The scene was foul

It wasn't fancy but raunchy
How the Son of God was born next to camels and donkeys
What an awesome feat to drop so deep and cop His sheep
He didn't step down He took a quantum leap

And I'm amazed how God infinite in wealth
Put aside His fame and limited Himself
To time and space and eyes and legs
He died to save a violent race whose sin would bring 'em hell

CHORUS:
Who'd assume that this could be?
God became a Man penetrating into human history
But He did it completely opposite than people thought He would
So unbelievers mocking it

Who'd assume that this could be?
You became a Man penetrating into human history
But You did it completely opposite than I thought You would
So I was mocking it

VERSE 2:
The Promised Messiah didn't come in the honor of sire
But humbly rocking some modest attire
So people missed it, to be specific
The legalistic thought their king would be the richest

And we know we like commodities
But the Possessor of all riches chose a life of poverty
Wait it's not the descendant of David is this?
Yes and He's descended the greatest distance

He chilled with sinners and tax robbers
Amongst His creatures who to Him were grasshoppers
He dwelt with the lower class lowly men
And those known as trash were His chosen kin

And the unbelieving Jews were sick of Him
They said, He runs with a team of stupid fishermen
And speaks to Samaritans and Barbarians
Pharisees stared at Him with harsh arrogance

It's shown when the Savior took notice of beggars
Healed the blind and sick and those with lowest of wages
He even touched those with leprosy
Which was seen as the most disgusting known infection see

Wait are you kidding me, watch Jesus go low
And wash Peter's toes, what great humility
See the Second Person of the Trinity
Came down to rescue workers of iniquity

Check His earthly ministry
He didn't make a bed, He had no place to lay His head
But He became bound to His own Law, but we found no flaw
Was from a rugged town, so raw

Slumbered and slept, hungered and wept and sweated
Plunged to our depth, the sum of our debt's pathetic
The humblest yet the humblest death that's dreaded
The Son is our rest, come under Him, get His credit

CHORUS:

No question that He's G-O-D
But He laid aside the full expression of His Deity
And surfed the chasm, no words can fathom
How God walked this earth which is cursed from Adam

No question that You're G-O-D
But You laid aside the full expression of Your Deity
And surfed the chasm, no words can fathom
How You walked this wicked earth

VERSE 3:
He was falsely condemned by Jews and filthy pagans
Now the Cross, the peak of His Humiliation
No discussion, surely best remove Him
He got the most disgusting form of execution

He Who sits upon the throne and rules
Was kicked and stomped and spit upon by Roman fools
Despised by Israel, tried by sinful souls
But was silent when struck by violent imbeciles

And Jesus was able, to call down legions of angels
But He was too faithful
Gracious and patient was Him
Yet He was hated and forsaken by men

Like Jews they hated His soul, Judas betrayed Him for gold
When it was tough His crew was afraid so they roll
Suckers they merked Him, this Suffering Servant
Was beat up and looked like He was cut by a surgeon

Slaughtered, bleeding, gushing, oozing blood
The Father pleased to crush Him Whom He loved
So He probably didn't even feel the crown and nails
He had to suffer more than that to bring down the veil

Our eyes are haughty and our lies are naughty
The holy Christ bore our sins inside His body
Yeah His veins they burst but no one's pain was worse
Coz the 1 who made the earth became a curse

And He was one with the Father's essence
But on the cross the God of heavens cut off His presence
So I can't share any language
That can rightly describe the Christ's despair and His anguish

So forever will I tell
In three hours Christ suffered more than any sinner ever will in hell
He who had infinite joy and pleasure
Became a Man of Sorrows so we could join forever

He took a cosmic plunge, put on some lungs
On the cross, became to God a sponge
To soak up His wrath
So the wicked wouldn't be sifted and blown into chaff
