Eternal Christ

Jesus, unchanged through ages long and wide, 
He breathed creation’s dawn with sovereign grace,
To Abraham He came, as a friend and guide,
And promised Isaac’s birth in time and place.

El Roi, the God who sees, found Hagar there,
In desert’s ache, He met her tearful plea.
With Jacob, wrestling through the midnight air,
He blessed and named him Israel, bold and free.

In flames, He spoke to Moses from the bush,
To Joshua, as Commander of the Lord’s army, robed in might.
He walked the furnace - fiery, fierce, seven times hot
A fourth man glowing in the blaze of night.

He heals, restores, and breaks death’s cruel tether - 
The same yesterday, today, and forever.
