In The Taking Of Theanthropos Lyrics & Chords By The Burial
Possessed by God Himself from before and beyond
Sharing the task of this masterful craft
As His hand reached for the deep, stretching the canvas tight
Spoke matter into substance, outside of time and space
Assigned the sea it's limit, and set the sun in place
His lungs then passed to our form, the breath of His own life
The spark of life
Seen in glimpses, an apparition of pure benevolence
A sight to behold, The Angel spoke of old in Divine Essence
To think a man once beheld the Truth incarnate
To think once more that this man lived to tell
The power of the universe, then wrapped so small
Immanuel, inherent man of quintessence
The life of love, sent to speak the words of He who sent
Choosing at every turn submission to His will
Humility is all I see, rightful king and conqueror sitting in a place so low
Endowed with all power and wisdom
Still obeying right into the prying hands of Death
Speaking truth to all who had ears to hear
Touching the hearts of those who harbored naught but fear
Rejecting crowns and thrones that He had been shown
In favor of the time He'd come for His own
