Perfect Son
The torch was passed at Calvary but so few seemed to care
About how God the Father and the Spirit suffered there
As on the cross the Perfect Son of righteousness did pay
The Price of our salvation as there was no other way
But for Them to be separated by the sin He bore
The sin Christ took upon Himself with crown of thorns He wore
As through the years the sins of men confessed upon the lamb
Did represent that solemn day when died the great I Am
And though He came forth from the tomb to live for us again
In more ways than we realize He still bears marks of sin
For in His hands side brow and feet the scars do still remain
Reminder of the Price God paid that we not sin again
When all is made brand new again the earth restored as clean
As when it was that perfect week when God's great work was seen
By all the great intelligence He'd fashioned long before
But this world different by His work that He had made us for
For this world was a testing place for other worlds to see
How great and deep the love of God for all who live would be
When knowing we would fall to sin when tempted on our own
God did not hesitate to prove His love without His throne
As Christ the Son became the Man forever One to be
Abandoned to the flesh we'll have throughout eternity
Encumbered in a body in one place in time and space
Forever to be One with us one with the human race
But more that just adopting our identity for this
He also made a place upon His throne we must not miss
A place for us to sit with Him to rule eternally
As priests and kings who comprehend what others only see
How when we were His enemies without a hope or prayer
God left His throne to be like us to bear the pain we bear
And even though we failed at times to be true to our word
He never failed to lift us up when from our lips He heard
A simple plea for holiness to take the wrong we've done
And wash away our guiltiness through Christ the perfect Son
And then make us like Him again the Way we're meant to be
Just this time free from sin through Him for all eternity
