PIECES OF CLAY
Temptation
PIECES OF CLAY
What miracles You've performed!
So much! But, on the sixth day,
The best of Your creations ...
From a little piece of clay.
Created in Your Image
You breathed life in him to stay
A child of Yours forever ...
That little piece of clay.
Imperfect, still ... he's alone
You took a rib ... as he lay
And made the perfect helpmate
For that little piece of clay.
Together they ruled Eden
Until satan came their way
Upset the perfect balance
Defiled pieces of clay.
Cast out from Utopia
A horrible price to pay
Disobeying their Master
They were cursed pieces of clay.
If it were not for Jesus
Wrapped up in a bed of hay
In a stall in Bethlehem
There would be no other way!
He's The Living Sacrifice
And to Him, each day, let's pray
To save us and have mercy
On sinful pieces of clay!
