The carpenter’s son (Matthew 13:55)

The Carpenter’s Son

To his Father He listened and learned of his tasks,
Of the work He must do and to do what He asks.
To assist and give help to all those who may call,
His work given freely and to be shared with all.
Whether broken or damaged, whether many or one,
We will all be mended by the carpenter’s Son.

He will teach what He knows to any who will hear,
Of his Father’s great wisdom to those who draw near.
Of forgiveness and kindness in stories He told,
Giving guidance and support to the young and the old.
Whether sunrise or noon, or at the setting sun,
We will all be taught by the carpenter’s son.

He will go where He’s needed, His work never ends,
Working with strangers and turning them into friends.
His gifts He shares freely with all those who are true,
His compassion is endless, for me and for you.
For now and forever, His work is never done,
All given with love from the carpenter’s son,
