Yet you have made him little less than angels,
crowned him with glory and honor. – Ps 8:6
we are born
little less than angels
and for awhile
we remain in that state
until we are told the lie
over and over
until little by little
we come to believe
we are much
less than angels
soon we find ourselves
far removed from eden
all that’s is left for us
the daily struggle to obtain
the object of our fall
the crown of honor and glory
once a birthright
now the chains and shackles
that bind and enslave us
and we forget
that we were made
little less than angels
until He was born
little less than angels
but He was immune
to the lies of the world
choosing instead
the baptism of death
and in his rising
He restored the memory
that we were made
little less than angels
come let us embrace
the Lord of our hearts
the Child Healer
lest we forget
that we were made
little less than angels
