Text:
“I am He†was His response to evil captors there.
“I am who ye seek today; let other lives be spared.â€
Roman soldiers, drenched in spite, voiced threat’nings very clear.
Then Peter, with his sword unsheathed, removed a Roman’s ear.
Jesus gently touched that ear for Malchus to be healed.
‘Stead of using pow’r to live, pure mercy was His shield.
Showing Father’s love for all, He walked a diff’rent path
By granting miracles to each when met with bitter wrath.
Standing in for Peter, too, pure Jesus healed this wound,
Saving him from punishment and further mortal gloom.
Then the captors took Him hence to die for all men’s sins,
Yet, He would live triumphantly . . . the miracle is Him.
“I am He†He claims to all, for Jesus is our Lord.
“O, I am who ye seek today. Come closer, I implore.â€
“I am He; I’m called the Christ. I live so all can see
My heav’nly pow’rs displayed with love and mercy. I am He.â€.
