Jesus Arrived to Be WITH Us
To save us from our sin
To secure us in right relationship with God
As a sign we never asked for
As fulfillment of his relentless pursuit
Awaiting our cheerful surrender
Jesus Arrived AS Us
His arrival as us was an eternal plan
His arrival is rooted in our human timeline
His arrival is undeterred by our sin and scandal
His arrival reveals the bigger story of redemption
His sharing our humanity is permanent
His dwelling among us was temporary
