Hymnal: Psalms, carefully suited to the Christian worship in the United States of America #297b (1791) First Line: Lord, what is man, poor feeble man Lyrics: 1 Lord, what is man, poor feeble man,
Born of the earth at first?
His life a shadow, light and vain,
Still hasting to the dust.
2 O what is feeble dying man,
Of all his sinful race,
That God should make it his concern,
To visit him with grace!
3 That God, who darts his lightnings down,
Who shakes the worlds above,
And terrors wait his awful frown,
How wondrous is his love! Scripture: Psalm 144:3-6 Languages: English
The vanity of man, and the condescension of God
