St. Melito of Sardis: Born as a son, led forth as a lamb, sacrificed as a sheep...

Born as a son, led forth as a lamb, sacrificed as a sheep, buried as a man, He rose from the dead as a God, for He was by nature God and Man. 

He is all things: He judges, and so He is Law; He teaches, and so He is Word; He saves, and so He is Grace; He begets, and so He is Father, He is begotten, and so He is Son; He suffers, and so He is Sacrifice; He is buried, and so He is Man; He rises again, and so He is God. 

This is Jesus Christ, to Whom belongs Glory for all ages.

St. Melito of Sardis
