Verse 1
O Weary waiting one
Bruised heart collecting dust
In the fullness of time your God has come
Unto this fractured earth
The very ground He cursed
By dawning flesh to show our flesh its worth

Chorus
Here now
The Almighty One becomes breakable
Here now
He comes to set the table
Into our weakness born
To settle up the score
Wise as the serpent, blameless as the dove
The Infinite confines Himself for love

Verse 2
O heir of Adam's fall
Your hope all but dissolved
Into this world's long winter God has walked
Upending all uncertainty
With unexpected majesty
He'll grow and die your death upon a tree

Bridge
He'll bleed for those who should have adored Him
Reconcile hearts who divorced Him
Forgive the ones with hatred in their eyes
A King, but not like you would imagine
Born in dirt, for no one would have Him
He'll pray for the guilty as they take His life
