Joseph came and took Him in hand.
Carefully he laid Jesus down.
Breath held, the earth gathered around
In worship. Silence held the land.
Side by side stood the low and grand
To touch the hem of the baby’s gown.
Joseph came and took Him in hand.
Carefully he laid Jesus down.
Stepping from his place he came to stand,
Risking his position and renown,
Under the cross. He reached a hand
To take the body of the Son of Man.
Joseph came and took Him in hand.
Carefully he laid Jesus down.
