Man.
Designed of His omnipotent mind.
Created in His eternal image.
Yet, being human quickly our eyes
Turned toward destruction
And all He despised.
With malice in our hearts
And deceit on our lips,
We forsook our God and cursed His name.
Into the darkness we were pulled
A thousand needles, were so cruel.
In Satan's hand we were kept,
As our Creator silently,
Watched and wept.
Yet in His absolute mercy
And unending grace
Would he send His Son,
To die in our place.
Innocent, blameless
And without guile.
He would shed His blood,
Our souls to reconcile.
Who are we
But sons of men,
To call upon the King.
What have we done
To deserve such a faith,
A life where nothing dies.
As a daughter of the King,
A princess by all rights,
She has reckoned Him to be
The Way, the Truth, the Light.
As a son of the King,
A prince in every way,
He has seen what you mean,
And by Him he is saved.
His unending love
Made evident to us.
It is our God
In whom we trust.
And with eternity's promise in reach
We the living, have fellowship
With our Father and King.
And by His name are called
Sons of God.
We worked hard on it for the past month. And if anything the challenge was blending our two unique styles of writing. Mine open and, hers usually on a rhyme scheme.

"There is no amount of good I can do in my lifetime to be called a good person. Good is a constant pursuit. Day after day.
But you, well that's another story entirely." ~IIIXII

and everything fine and u? how have things been?
This is a very traditional way of portraying the rebellion but, at the heart of the matter, still rings true.
This made my day, particularly for showing me two very articulate people who haven't chosen the oh-so-trendy route of Atheism. (AKA Insanity)
As for the style, itself, you've managed to set a smooth pace without ruining it with a sing-song tone.

The meaning of life is to live well, die, and, in death, know a true, immortal life as an entity not unto oneself, but defined as all that which surrounds oneself.
