There most definitely is a Creator, and He most definitely is light years beyond our physical grasp. In our pride, we consider ourselves His equals. We reach too high, and Icarus-like, we fall to the ground.

Lyrics
HUMBLE YOURSELF
Humble yourself
In the sight
Of the Lord,
And He shall
Lift you up.
You reach too high,
Fall to the ground.
You start to cry,
No one around.
You want much more,
And you get less.
Wolf at the door,
No one to bless.
All those big shoes
Stepping on you.
You?re black and blue;
Your heart is too.
Humble yourself
In the sight
Of the Lord,
And He shall
Lift you up.
Wrapped up in dreams
That unravel,
It?s a hard road
That you travel.
One more detour -
The bridge is out.
One thing for sure,
You live in doubt.
No light ahead,
Darkness behind.
Pain in your head
Driving you blind.
Humble yourself
In the sight
Of the Lord,
And He shall
Lift you up.
You try and fail
Far too often.
Another nail
In your coffin.
The end is near;
You?re out of time.
No need to fear
The finish line.
You still have breath,
Still in the game.
Before your death,
Pray in His Name.
Humble yourself
In the sight
Of the Lord,
And He shall
Lift you up.
Humble yourself
In the sight
Of the Lord,
And He shall
Lift you up.
