The Human Race

The Human Race


Formed of the clay
With whom man was made 
Created in whose image 
Resurrected from the grave 
Redeemed by the grace 
Of the savior of the universe 
His breath awakened my soul 
Placed me atop the highest mountain 
And proclaimed his love 
Greater than I could ever know
Surrendered at his feet
Grasping hold of his robe
Amidst the growth of the fallen weed
A master of disguise 
Whose seed, stolen souls
Who labor and die 
Burn and rot 
Forever doomed 
In the chambers of inferno
