His name
Cold and ancient
Devoid of glamour
And lovely talk
His name
Pure and perfect
Shining but not polished
Devoid of sweet rubbish
His name
Broken and pierced
Carved on a stake
And perfected by nails
His name
First and last
Ancient in days
Lion of a certain tribe
His name
Powerful and fearful
A threat and also merciful
Liberating and enchanting
His name
Is Jesus Christ
A fortress of all clay mire
And a consuming fire.
