Patchwork Heart ~ ~ ~ |
"What is a patchwork heart?" you ask, Well, most all folks surely have one. A patchwork heart has many seams Before God's work is done. Our hearts were perfect when we came, No scars the surface showed. But in so many different ways Our hearts reaped what we sowed. |
A patchwork heart's been broken At least a thousand times. The scars of life are showing For all of life is not sublime. A patchwork heart's most any heart That's survived the flames of life. It's seams are stitched together With joys and tears and strife. |
For as He wishes us to be So shall He mold our hearts, To create a better person Who from him will not depart. So if your heart's been broken Like a puzzle fallen apart, Let God stitch it back together, And be proud of your patchwork heart. |
