One day beyond the pearly gates
The Lord our God rejoiced,
Another child would walk the earth
And this is what He voiced…
“My hands, like tools will mold your form
With threads of Heaven’s fleece,
Each stitch I make, each part I craft
Reveals a masterpiece.”
“Until you’re born no one can see
The parts that I’ve combined,
And you will bear all that you need -
Three pieces intertwined.”
“The first – your heart, will beat with love
One’s given every man,
Though how you choose to nurture it
Remains in your own hands.”
“The next – your mind, will hold the thoughts
Of what is right and true,
But if you disregard each one
My eyes will cry for you.”
“The third – your soul, is empty ‘til
You recognize I’m there,
It’s then your being comes to life
And heaven sings this prayer…”
“It’s with great pride we do proclaim
Your fabric is elite,
Exalted is our Lord and God
For He’s made you complete.”
“Who you’ll become was meant to be
No other’s quite the same,
He took the time to craft just one
And now you’ll bear His name.”
“He placed you in your mother’s womb
And as you grew He beamed,
Your every part turned out just right -
Exactly how He dreamed.”
And, then the angels bowed to God
They praised His work that day,
He sat upon His splendid throne
And had these words to say…
“With hands like tools, I molded you
Of heart and soul and mind,
Creator and his masterpiece -
Forever intertwined.”
