He Became Like Me
He became like me
To feel what I feel
To understand why I cry
To know a breaking heart
The pain of loneliness.
He became like me
Not a king or a prince
Instead a pauper
Poor in the eyes of the world
And insignificant to society.
He became like me
A human formed from shame
A sinner undeserving
Yet He was perfect
Blameless and without fault.
He became like me
To give me salvation
To set this prisoner free
For this, I love Him
I will serve Him all my life.
I will praise Him till the end
Until I cease to exist on this earth
Giving thanks and gratitude
Knowing it was His choice
To become like me.
