God Became Man

God Became Man
 by Sr. Natalie Sayde Salameh

God became man,
a concept that baffles the mind.
God became man,
a light to the blind.

God became man,
could this possibly be?
God became man,
Yes, to set man free.

God became man,
because His essence is Love.
God became man,
to shower mercy from above.

God became man,
the Almighty, a child.
God became man,
so meek and so mild.

God became man,
on a cold winter’s night.
God became man,
and tyranny took flight.

God became man,
to show man the way.
God became man,
to keep sin at bay.

God became man,
so that we could approach.
God became man,
not to condemn or reproach.

God became man,
so that we could have life.
God became man,
so that we have a friend in strife.

God became man,
a sign of contradiction.
God became man,
this is no work of fiction.
God became man,
because His love is true.
God became man,
to make all things new.

God became man,
born today in a cave.
God became man,
to liberate and save.

God became man,
how can we overlook such love?
God became man,
let us echo the ‘gloria’ that came from above.

God became man,
the eagle born of a gentle dove,
God became man,
so let’s give love for love.
