[Stylist] Based on re-reading scripture Roman soldiers placed crown of thorns on Jesus' head before they crucified him. Therefore, I changed that part in A line.

Hello all,

Below is my edited poem in progress.

 

Royal King of mankind dwelled among white flock, guided wise men by bright
starlight to see Jesus swadeled near Mary and Joseph in House of Bread,
faced them sleeping on hay for a bed

Yahweh burned bush when Moses stood barefoot on holy ground, killed
Pharaoh's firstborn son to free oppressed Israelites, lighted night while
they walked through wilderness

Anointed Son prayed to heavenly Father on Mount of Olives, sacrificed
crimson blood from hands and feet nailed to Calvary's cross after crown of
thorns pierced His head, paid fettered slaves' sin debts

Nourishing redeemer fed fishers of men daily bread, filled them with living
water like an overflowing fountain, strengthened prisoners to lovingly serve
suffering brethren multiplying fruitfulness
