BEHOLD, MY SERVANT
The LORD God introduced His Messiah;
The Saviour is One that we must admire.
Though He is the Messiah, He is also a Servant;
He came to fulfil all that salvation warrants.
The LORD identified Him for all to know and see;
This Servant would display compassion and mercy.
He would never raise His voice in furious anger;
He would be gracious to those who are weaker.
He would seek to uphold truth and justice;
The world is so lacking in kindness and peace.
He came into the world to offer it salvation;
Man, gripped by sin, is headed for destruction.
The LORD would uphold His Servant, the Messiah;
God would anoint Him and give Him the Spirit’s fire.
The Messiah is the One in whom the LORD delights;
He will dispel darkness because He is the Light!
