The black sheep

Long, long ago, before
you and I were born,
there was this baby
you see.
He was born in Bethlehem,
in a humble little manger,
"tis written he came to
set the captive free.
Okay, okay so here's a
gist of history,
follow closely and
please pay attention.
This baby was special
by all accounts-
he was conceived
immaculately,
I shan't fail to
happily mention.
He waxed older-
got to 'bout twelve
years when he started
inquiring and asking
questions in the temple.
Doctors were amazed,
some religious leaders
would have tased,
this divine child
who spoke with caliber
so simple.
His ultimate purpose
was surely a selfless one,
as he came to serve
every 'you' and every 'me',
He did miracles of healing,
not once did he wrong
in his dealings,
while setting many a
hopeless sinner free.
His kind and helpful ways,
inflamed many a people in
his adult days, they set out
to cause his ministry
to run aground.
They accused him sorely,
their vain attempts
were made poorly,
because in him
no weakness could be found.
What a mighty teacher
of Gods Word he was,
with many followers
who believed in his ways;
and when some got weak,
he was always there
to give them a tweak,
and still here for his people
in these last days.
Now let me go back
and finish conveying
the grand finale,
how he did a tremendously
sacrificial feat for the lost.
Hear me please, at times
the thought of it
cast me to my knees,
by him dying on that
painfully, triumphant cross.
One last point to make-
Jesus, his name, is now
sitting on his throne
on the right hand of
God, his father,
in glory.
There will be some
whom choose not
to believe,
yet if they are among
the living they have a reprieve,
just have faith and trust
that this history is
indeed his story.
