Freddie Robinson Jr. Poet Rhyme

Son of Man

Adam was the first man,
perfectly made
But he did not have a godly nature
to resist the supreme tempter,
Satan
Adam left us, his children, a legacy of sin
Disobedience wrought devastation,
and death became mankind's unwelcome friend
Who in the world can save us
from the clutches of death?
Who in the world can deliver us 
from taking our last breath?

Son of Man,
yes, the Son of Man can
Son of Man,
the second Adam

Adam was a living soul,
unable to stop death from overpowering him
Dust to dust,
back to the grave
Lord, we needed someone
who had the power to save

Son of Man,
heavenly made
He had the power to defeat death,
He had the power to save from the grave

The second Adam
was given dominion over all things
He made death impotent:
O death, where is your sting?

Son of Man,
yes, the Son of Man
has the quickening spirit
Life giving, soul saving spirit
Singing everlasting life, can you hear it?

Son of Man
Get to know who He is
Learn everything about Him
that you can
