Vulnerable

There he lay in glory,
A baby instead of a King,
The baas and neighs of animals,
No mighty bells heard ring.

Of castles, armies, and riches,
He cared nothing of,
But to live life vulnerable,
Was to live his life with love.

The Christ, born of a virgin,
An epiphany of good news,
The author of my life,
My deliverer without dues.
