~Oh, Great
Carpenter~
Oh great carpenter
from Galilee
Carve out my
life from that
old rugged
tree
That it may
be pleasing oh Lord to thee,
Carve me and
shape me I pray,
To be a little
more like Thee
each and every
day
Let Your blood
stains remain,
Let them always
remind me of all Your suffering and pain.
Carve Your holy
Word upon my heart,
So from Thee
I will never ever part.
Help me realize
that all the trials and temptations that come my way,
Are only the
sandpaper that will smooth my rough edges away.
Help me also
realize that You won't be done carving my life from
that old rugged
tree,
Until at last
You take me to heaven to live for all eternity
Thank you to Daniel for sending this beautiful and heart warming poem
to me. God bless you!!!
"I Stand
In Awe Of YOU"
