WHO AM I?
God made Adam out of dust, But thought it best to make me first; So I was made before the man According to the Lord's Holy Plan. My whole body God made complete, Without arms or hands or feet. My ways and acts did the Lord control, But in my body He placed no soul. A living being I became, And Adam gave to me a name. Then from his presence I withdrew, For this man Adam I never knew. All my Maker's laws I do obey, And from these laws I never stray. Thousand's of me go in fear, But seldom on the earth appear. Later, for a purpose the Lord did see, He placed a living soul in me. But that soul of mine the Lord had to claim, And from me took it back again. And when this soul from me had fled, I was the same as when first made; Without arms, legs, feet, or soul, I travel on from pole to pole. My labors are from day to night, And to men I once furnished light. Thousands of people, both young and old, Did by my death bright lights behold. No right nor wrong can I conceive, The Bible and it's teachings I can't believe. The fear of death does not trouble me, Pure happiness I will never see. Up in Heaven I can never go, Nor in the grave or Hell below. So get your Bible and read with care, You'll find my name recorded there.
Anyone know this one?

WHO AM I?
God made Adam out of dust, But thought it best to make me first; So I was made before the man All God's creation except man? According to the Lord's Holy Plan. My whole body God made complete, Without arms or hands or feet. Hmm...Plant, snake, fish, most aquatic mammals, or an inanimate thing? My ways and acts did the Lord control, But in my body He placed no soul. A living being I became, Snake, fish or aquatic mammal? And Adam gave to me a name. Then from his presence I withdrew, For this man Adam I never knew. All my Maker's laws I do obey, Can't be the snake if it obeys the Maker's laws. And from these laws I never stray. Thousand's of me go in fear, But seldom on the earth appear. Later, for a purpose the Lord did see, He placed a living soul in me. But that soul of mine the Lord had to claim, And from me took it back again. Reminds me of Jonah in the whale. And when this soul from me had fled, I was the same as when first made; Without arms, legs, feet, or soul, I travel on from pole to pole. My labors are from day to night, And to men I once furnished light. Thousands of people, both young and old, Did by my death bright lights behold. I'm thinking whale oil was used for in lamps for light back then, and the whale has to die to get it. No right nor wrong can I conceive, The Bible and it's teachings I can't believe. The fear of death does not trouble me, Pure happiness I will never see. Up in Heaven I can never go, Nor in the grave or Hell below. So get your Bible and read with care, You'll find my name recorded there.
Anyone know this one? With two of my hunches leaning towards whale, I'll guess that.

Leviathon. ;D ;D Being as I trust that Phil isn't a demon worshipper who thinks that Leviathan is a gatekeeper to hell, let's give him credit for a correct answer too. Did some checking on his answer and found that in Modern Hebrew, Leviathan is translated as "whale", although the ancients used the word to mean "sea monster".
