The Christian Man
 

The Christian Man


A Christian true is more astute than scientist or sage
In every bell, he finds her root, and den of her lion cage

A diamond he of potash crude, and champion of his race
Tho’ rivers of vicissitude run down upon his face

More prowess than the athlete, a Christian sure is he
Thru tempest sore a steady beat, upon life’s raging sea

More passion than a poet fair, or artist set ablaze
More valor than a soldier dare, a fighter all his days

A serpent he, of cunning deed…an eagle o’er his prey
A lioness with cubs to feed, and so the weak to slay

All wrapped in kindly words of love, a jester with a wrench
A slave of choice to one above, who overcame his stench

A master of the moment now, eternity ahead
A follower of Christ his vow, the Christian man is dead
