What is Man? (an original poem from a book of Inspiration that I published in 2016)
What is MAN?
The image and likeness of God,
A servant of Jesus the Lord,
The evidence of His word.
What is Man?
Nothing but ashes and dust,
Nothing but malice and lust,
Nothing that any should trust.
What is MAN?
Nothing but woeful and vain,
Nothing is he, but inane,
Nothing does he, but complain.
What is MAN?
Nothing of value from birth,
Nothing of any great worth,
Nothing but scourge of the earth.
What is MAN?
Nothing but lost and alone,
Nothing for sin, can atone,
Nothing but dead in his own
Sin.
What is MAN?
NOTHING.
Nothing at all, without Jesus.
