Bible Riddle: October 2002
Afar they watched my whole arise, Its summit seemed to touch the skies; "When all is done," the crowds exclaim, "Then we will make ourselves a name." Remove a letter and behold! A shepherd issues from his fold, With blood, devoutly draws he nigh; Himself, alas, how soon to die. Remove a letter still, and now, Before an idol god they bow; To wood and stone is worship paid, And men adore what they have made. Remove a letter yet once more, And see an altar stained with gore; And he who built it named it thus, To teach a precious truth to us.
