After Hebrews 2:5-18
Because he suffered,
he was crowned king,
the founder of earth, king,
the one who sanctifies, king,
the one given to us.
And so, when we suffer,
we see the king who
suffered as well,
who suffered for us,
who suffered so
we could live.
What we suffer,
he has suffered.
He suffered first and
died so we could live.
He knows who we are;
he knows what we suffer
because he suffered first.
