Lord, what was Man, when made at first
Hymnal: The Psalms of David #P8d (1766) Topics: Dominion of Man over Creatures; God his sovereignty and goodness to man; God made man Lyrics: 1 Lord, what was Man, when made at first,
Adam the Offspring of the Dust,
That thou shouldst set him and his Race
But just below an Angel's Place?
2 That thou shouldst raise his Nature so,
And make him lord of all below,
Make every beast and Bird submit,
And lay the Fishes at his Feet?
3 But, O! what brighter Glories wait
To crown the Second Adam's State!
What Honours shall thy Son adorn,
Who condescended to be born?
4 See him below his Angels made;
See him in Dust amongst the Dead,
To save a ruin'd World from Sin:
But he shall reign with Pow'r divine.
5 The World to come redeem'd from all
The Miseries that attend the Fall,
New made, and glorious, shall submit
At our exalted Saviour's Feet. Scripture: Psalm 8:3-9 Languages: English

And find a Resurrection there.

For all their Toil, Reproach and Pain;
Let all below, and all above,
Join to proclaim thy wond'rous Love,
