Make Me Your Quilt

Make me a log-cabin patchwork of variegated colours of gold
Majestically correlated as a Rainbow Garden for Truth to untold
Frame each work with angel's delight, unique in every way
Father (of Creation) it's your handiwork I desire to be, each day

I see threads of living wonders, works so astoundingly wrought 
Your Word's sown in splendour from chosen vessels, and not
Wash me in Your Fountain and iron-out what's not meant to be
Your work, in me, is a thing of beauty, an awesome thing to see

A Rose, within the Rose of Sharon, 'establish' please dear King
With Your translucent Rainbow-works, so joyous, make me sing
Let my hands display Wisdom's beauty-, moving hearts to cheer
Envelope me in such duty; for Your Words, Lord, I long to hear
