Jesus Christ

Praise Him for His Holy descent to earth

Revere his Virgin Mother giving birth

Annoint His head and feet with Oil of Myrrah

Illuminate His Mother Mary's care

Spiritually His soul was blessed

Extolling His Father at God's behest


Teacher He was to all who stopped and heard

Honour his forbearance of wrath incurred

Exemplary His traits  for all to see


Lauded he was when died at Calvary

Obeisance His selfless sacrifice

Redeemer He is of man's wayward vice

Deliverer He's there at our demise
