PARABLE OF A PERCOLATOR
I WAS A USED UP PERCOLATOR
MY BODY ALL COVERED WITH SMUT
THE HANDLE WAS ALL BUT GONE
MY LIFE TRAPPED IN A RUT
MY COVER CAME UP MISSING
YOU COULD SAY I FLIPPED MY LID
IN THE PAST I COULD COOK COFFEE
LIKE NO OTHER POT DID
MY BASKET NOW LEAKS GROUNDS
I'VE BOILED TOO MANY DAYS
BUT NOW I HAVE NO USE
THIS POT ONCE KNEW THE WAY
SO IN MY DESPERATION
A PRAYER I THEN MUTTERED
I NEEDED TO BE MADE NEW
FOR THIS POTS LIFE WAS CLUTTERED
THATS WHEN JESUS REACHED DOWN
HE GAVE THIS POT A NEW HEART
HIS SOFT VOICE REASSURING ME
AS HE FILLED THE MISSING PARTS
NOW I HAVE SOMETHING TO PERK ABOUT
THIS PERCOLATOR HAS BECOME AS NEW
NO MATTER WHAT PLACE YOU ARE IN
MY SAVIOUR WILL LISTEN TO YOU
