I'm praying for that cloudy day
When knees will bend,
Tongues confess
And all eyes witness
The coming of our King of Glory
With power, upon the clouds
Once upon a time, He laid His glory down
Born to us a babe so meek and mild
Constrained to walk and talk and live among us
To show us the Way of Life beneath a thorny crown
He left this world much the way in which He came ...
He breathed and then He breathed no more
Bringing joy to some and grief to others
All to the foolishness of man's own wisdom
Between that first and final breath,
He taught us why He came -
Who He was and Who He's always been
'I came that you might have Life abundant'
'I AM the Way, the Truth and the Life'
'I AM the First, the Last, the Living One'
'I AM the One Who was and is and is to come'
Who could understand that Life can be gained
Only by death in loving sacrifice,
Though that was His mission?
Foretold that where He must go,
He must go alone and there we could not yet follow,
He left us to remember His Words of Promise
To return for us one day,
Not as a babe
But as our King Triumphant
In all the power and glory of Heaven
'I know you and you know Me;
Though for a time your eyes shall not behold Me,
I will be forever with you in your heart
Live each day by Faith,
Trust in the Hope of glory to come,
Live My Love before each and every one
Then look to the skies
For that cloudy day
When all will see and know
That I AM GOD'

Philippians 2:5-8
Have this attitude in yourselves which was also in Christ Jesus, who, although He existed in the form of God, did not regard equality with God a thing to be grasped, but emptied Himself, taking the form of a bond-servant, and being made in the likeness of men. Being found in appearance as a man, He humbled Himself by becoming obedient to the point of death, even death on a cross.

Romans 5:8
But God demonstrates His own love toward us, in that while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us.
Romans 5:17-18
For if by the transgression of the one, death reigned through the one, much more those who receive the abundance of grace and of the gift of righteousness will reign in life through the One, Jesus Christ. So then as through one transgression there resulted condemnation to all men, even so through one act of righteousness there resulted justification of life to all men.

For this reason I bow my knees before the Father, from whom every family in heaven and on earth derives its name, that He would grant you, according to the riches of His glory, to be strengthened with power through His Spirit in the inner man, so that Christ may dwell in your hearts through faith; and that you, being rooted and grounded in love, may be able to comprehend with all the saints what is the breadth and length and height and depth, and to know the love of Christ which surpasses knowledge, that you may be filled up to all the fullness of God.
