You would have me be so undignified
Because you are not a respecter of persons, God-Man moving in the dirt streets among us. You know too intimately the beauty of humility, So you woo me into humility, into communion, You woo me again and again, in gentleness, You who are whole so as not to need me, Yet so whole that you call me to you in love. You would have me be so undignified; It is the heart posture required for me to dance In rhythm with you who sat undignified At so many tables with so many other souls Just like me. I’m nothing special and still I’m your everything, so I’ll sing off-tune And I’ll dance undignified and I will offer Myself as a sacrifice of praise to you alone, My doting, undignified, glorified, worthy king.
