A Mate for Thee
As man stood in the garden with glee
God decided it's not good he be alone
He knew man needed a mate for thee
God brought all His creatures for man to see
But for man none comparable was shown
As man stood in the garden with glee
God caused man to rest to His decree
As He crafted a mate from man's bone
He knew man needed a mate for thee
Man awaking the mate was brought to him
Knowing she from he, he named her woman
As to this he proclaimed in a hymn
God joined them as was to His plan
The two are now one in flesh as mates
Although only one man as it began
Knowing what's needed to what He creates
As man stood in the garden with glee
God saw to man's increase this need dictates
For He knew man needed a mate for thee
