The Last Adam

(Written by Marvin Griffin)

There was a Man, a lovely Man

And beautiful His feet

They walked the roads of Galilee

For sinners He must meet

There was a Man, a faithful Man

The words of God to speak

That Pharisee and scribe might know

That God-ward they were weak

There was a Man, a gentle Man

The children, He had blessed

And welcomed to His heavenly home

For sinners knew Him best

There was a Man, a fearless Man

He walked with steadfast face

There followed twelve with hearts afraid

He’d die in sinner’s place

There was a man, a cursed man

My due, He felt it all

That peace I’d know, e’en here below

While He, my bitterest gall

There is a Man, a risen Man

Who sits on Heaven’s throne

All glory His, and spoils too

Soon shall He claim His own.
