He loved them all, without slight or spite.
In our world grown unconvinced by light,
Showing ourselves disavowed and dead,
Here witnessed the most chivalrous Knight.

His eyes truly unashamed of sight,
No other could supersede His stead,
In our world grown unconvinced by light.

Of wonders, His disciples would write,
The lost were healed, forgiven, and fed,
Here witnessed the most chivalrous Knight.

The news of His disbelieved birthright,
Angered those who circumscribe what's said,
In our world grown unconvinced by light.

Accused, though innocent, we did indict,
A crown of thorns pressed upon His head,
Here witnessed the most chivalrous Knight.

He loves us all, without slight or spite,
On the cross, His Holy blood was shed,
In our world grown unconvinced by light,
Here witnessed the most chivalrous Knight.
