O Lord,

How can it be you came for me

The foremost sinner to pursue

By the incarnation of grace and mercy

“Kiss the Son”, my hope and refuge

How can it be you prayed for me

If only the Cross could be stayed

Blood droplets of love in agony 

“Kiss the Son”, now betrayed

How can it be you died for me

Your body laid in another’s grave

Crushing the one who bruised your heel

“Kiss the Son”, risen the third day!

How can it be you are returning for me

King of kings, Lord of all, Son of Man

Praying for your bride in Gethsemane

“Kiss the Son”, God’s holy One on Zion!

Come, Lord Jesus, come!

Amen

“Serve the Lord with fear, and rejoice with trembling. Kiss the Son, lest he be angry, and you perish in the way, for his wrath is quickly kindled. Blessed are all who take refuge in him.”

Psalm 2:11-12 ESV
