Both Things
Bob Bennett

Every glory wrought by flesh and blood

Will someday be brought low

Every tongue shall confess on bended knee

Every heart and mind shall know


For the whole of the Spoken Universe

Unceasing chorus brings

For The Holy Son of God is Man

And forever is both things


Though not confined to dates or feasts

We celebrate them just the same

To join with those who have gone ahead

To give glory to God's name


Throughout our days, we pass these signs

In the footsteps of paupers and kings

For our salvation is finished, but it's never done

And forever is both things



Oh, we're living in a contradiction

Yet our questions are always either/or

To this convenient fragment of fiction

God answers both/and and more


It's easy to love a newborn Child

A blessed Baby in a manger

But the Man that Infant grew up to be

Can sometimes become a stranger


Whether Lamb of God at Eastertide

Or the Savior that Christmas brings

Jesus, the same yesterday, today

And forever is both things
