Lord Jesus, You chose to leave Your throne of Authority
to enter, incarnate, the cosmos of Your created time and space.
In Your Love's immeasurable abundancy,
You, Who are Love, chose to die the death reserved for me,
and, dying, Your Death gave soul-grasping death a destructive trample,
and bestowed Life on those in the tombs (even to the slightest trace
of decomposed dust), and secured, for my soul an efficient and ample
Salvation in which I rejoice, and for all of eternity
offer you a sacrifice of joy and praise---
You Who are now seated on the Throne of help-giving and restorative Grace.
Starward-Led
