The poem, titled “The Exquisite Beauty of Jesus Christ, King of Kings and Lord of Lords,” celebrates the unparalleled beauty of Jesus Christ, portraying it as majestic, holy, and divine. It contrasts the perspectives of the redeemed and the unredeemed: the redeemed see and rejoice in His radiant grace, love, and glory—evident in His wounds, His voice, and His eternal reign—while the unredeemed, blinded to His holiness, scorn and reject it. The poem emphasizes Christ’s dual nature as both Lamb and Lion, His sovereign power over creation, and His ability to bring peace and redemption. It concludes with a triumphant declaration of His supreme beauty, recognized and cherished by the redeemed who find joy in His divine light.

Beneath the heavens, vast and wide,
A beauty reigns where shadows hide.
Majestic Light, both fierce and mild,
The royal Son, the Father’s child.

The redeemed behold His radiant face,
They know the depths of holy grace.
Each wound a jewel, each scar a star,
A splendor shining near and far.

Yet unredeemed, with eyes so blind,
Scorn the beauty they cannot find.
His holiness, a piercing flame,
They mock the glory of His name.

Exquisite voice that calms the sea,
Whispers peace to set us free.
The saved rejoice, their souls alight,
While others turn from sacred sight.

The Lamb enthroned, the Lion bold,
In Him, eternity unfolds.
To those redeemed, His beauty sings,
To hardened hearts, a reckoning stings.

O Christ our Lord, our truest King,
Of Thee the heavens ever ring.
Thy beauty reigns, supreme, divine,
The redeemed rejoice, His light divine.
