Cracked But Glorified

CRACKED BUT GLORIFIED

Every one of us is given a gift—to show who God is
Glorious treasures entrusted with wisdom and care
Grafting us into a plan, making us co-workers of His
To partner an eternal God cannot compete—so rare

An amazing reality coming to life if we have His mind
There is no higher honor for the work of our hands
When spiritual intellect becomes entwined—aligned
Spiritual diversity defined through His perfect plans

Struggle and strife through life—alone we stand
Cracked and fractured by hearts that are broken
Sculptured carefully with the 'Potters perfect hand
His name glorified -revealing our treasures golden
