The pattern

The tailor has a pattern 

Uses it every single time
It is the basis for all garments
It is the only way to ensure
That each and every one
Is created in the image
Of the original design

God created man in His image
We are the the crown of creation
Jesus is our pattern
He has noble traits of character
With no bias toward evil
High intellectual powers
He is the original pattern

We must emulate our maker
Aim to be like him in every way
Though created in His image
I am afraid that man has fallen
Indeed man has strayed
Though we all fall short
We must return to the original pattern

In order to be saved...
