What is Man

What Is Man?
 

Such a lonesome creature 
In a sea of humanity
All came from the dust
When we opened our eyes 
The first face we saw
Others say we came about
Previously having fins and scale
We swum, crawled, stood up

Such a helpless creature
Totally dependent in the sea of the world 
All was made to meet our need
Would we look at it all, take heed
Care was put into it all
Even into this body prior to the fall
A voice calls out, will we heed the call?

Such a hopeless creature
For love, love that will risk it all
But for love we'll be most miserable
All that we have, own, we will leave behind
Our short stay here teaches, how fragile we are
Yet amidst a thousand worlds 
Innumerable constellations, galaxies 
A love that made them all reaches, yearns

Such a loved creature 
Love that knows no limit nor depth nor height
Given to show man that nothing else matters
When it comes to loving him
At a loss, the question came for one so loved
What's about man that as the flower he fades
Yet so precious in His sight is our death
