For Unto Us


For unto us a child is born, unto us a son is given: and the government shall be upon his shoulder: and his name shall be called Wonderful, Counselor, The mighty God, The everlasting Father, The Prince of Peace.
Isaiah 9:6 KJV
            ~~~~~~~~~~~
Isaiah spoke of Christ ere He was born,
Assured by prophecy it comes to pass,
Both fully man and God, His message sworn;
A Prince above all Kings, no one surpass.
Both earth and heaven Jesus comes to rule,
The governance of both His shoulders bear;
So Wonderful indeed, most precious jewel,
In glory and in beauty none compare.
The Counselor advising sinners come,
The everlasting Father to the saved;
The Prince of Peace indeed to all, not some,
The Alpha and Omega, Love engraved.
            Our Savior and our Lord, our all in all
            Is Jesus Christ, the name the saints do call.
