Jesus, God in Sandals

Jesus, God in sandals,
to whom we can relate
our burdens and our sorrows
when in a troubled state
is one who has well known us
and been where we have been
for walked He in our trials
and conquered o’er our sins.

Jesus, God in linen
draped loose about his chest,
who never bogged in worry
or never was obsessed
is one who has well helped us
and kept us from regret
for took He on our sentence
but never broke in sweat.

Jesus, God in shackles
about his wrists and feet,
who scourged for our transgressions
and for our sins was beat
is one who has well Loved us
with tender loving care
and leads us on toward Heaven
until we meet Him there.

God bless,
Lighthouse Bob

I love the way you've presented Jesus interchangeably as God. Seems the names are usually used separately although we know they are 2 offices of the Holy Trinity. Wonderful thoughts.

I loved the title..I can picture vividly God who took our human form, walked the earth to show us the way to live life. Jesus who loved us to his death on the cross..this poem just write for the season of Lent, just passed.
