Man Like Him
“He was made like his brothers
in every way.”
With awe and joy I read.
My humble yet exalted priest
Who, every day,
Hears me as I plead.
Then thought of “Lamb slain
before earth's foundation,”
Brings pause over Holy Writ.
Another shining facet
Of salvation
Warms this heart further yet.
“Not only was the Lord
Made like me
Except without sin," I ponder.
“We were first formed as the man
He would be.”
A wonder upon a wonder!
So true God-Man, seated
at the right,
with love that will never dim,
Meets with pity believers
He became like,
So they can be man like Him.
