'Son of Man' : Hymn for Today

Here is my choice for the 'Hymn for Today.' I hope that you enjoy singing it and will use it in your worship services soon.

Son of Man   LM

TUNE: Abends

Lord, what is man, that You should care,

That You are mindful of his place;

The Son of Man, that You have giv’n

The light of glory and of grace.

You made Him for a little while,

Below angelic, heav’nly host;

Then raised Him up to be with You,

When ev’rything to man seemed lost.

To Son of Man, dominion giv’n,

He’s crowned with glory, full of grace;

He is the everlasting Word,

The Lord of Light o’er time and space.

Now we are here on earth to serve,

Not questioning the lowest task;

Until the time when we are called

To do His will and all He asks.
