“The Worth of a Man”

“The Worth of a Man”

Published by Poetry.com
December 2004
What this Man is really worth! Is set in struggle, from his birth.

Throughout the span of shortened dearth, so longing to gain a sense worth.

Told, by those gathered round, “Its in his hands, where “worth” is found.”

Wearied, by those who measured his task. So, now his strength does fail to last.

For if to look within this Man.

Is to know it’s not his hand, whereby we know the worth of this Man,

But, by the gift, so given for him to have this Man forgiven of sin.

From the one whom “worth” is given. As if he where the only Man living.

Rev. J.G.S.
