Equality of Man, We All

We all are lying hypocrites. Our lives are staged to flaunt and bow.
We all are actors; hypnotizing masses, as we play our parts.
We all are lifeless, spiritually. Our gods? All dead! Meat! Golden cow.
We all are, through and through, corrupt. Depraved affections rein our hearts.
We all are creatures, made to serve: a master makes his own obey.
We all, by nature, fallen man, are willing slaves. We beg to sin.
We all are wicked; seed of Satan, walking in our father's way.
We all are traitors. Enmity! At war with Christ! We cannot win!
