Broken Tapestry

Oh how I wish… If someone can knit back my tapestry in me I will be in all my glee; For it’s long overdue. The fine lines are fading and the cords are fraying. Heavier loads are weighing me down and I can’t seem to get back on track. Yes, they are so heavy on my back, I long for the day when I didn’t lack, When all my tapestry was intact. So time is fading, The body is changing, I am not the same I used to be. Oh I could remember not so long ago, When I was so fine-tuned; I could play all day long. Now the aches and pains flood my mind, Keeping me back from the things I dream to do I’m so tired now, can’t seem to hide it anymore. Bended and broken, Old and grey, worn and torn, Is this body still on display; Still moving on, still pressing on, But holding on to the joy and peace Of the hope that’s indwelling in me. O Beautiful Saviour, what treasures in me, Living in Jesus, your glory is seen, You can use me, broken as can be, Till I am finally set free! Composed by: Nandrani Mala Ramai
