why does he still reach down to a people,

who are so filled with pride?

 so full of ourselves, 

we can not see the tide.

we build our "Great Mansions" along his shores. 

oblivious of the tsunami that shall one day pour. 

 by covering our eyes 

we can only "then" see the shame  

of our puny, little lives in Jesus name.

 Just maybe,  

when everything that we have-

is turned back to dust.

 when our cars  and our ships 

are all turned to rust.

maybe then our eyes will be open, 

and we shall finally all see

How precious to God was humanity.
