The Master's Plan

The Master's plan is not known by man
It isn't even something that we could begin to understand
The peaks and valleys, the twists and turns
shouldn't even be part of our concerns
Because if He brought us to it He'll bring us through it
but in its very midst, we'll be build up and strengthened if we don't resist

The Master knows what we're made of and how much we can bare
and He would never take us into the wilderness and leave us there
He keeps us from those things we can't see
and gives us a way of escape should we need to flee

It is our job to listen, hear  and obey
for He is the masterful potter and we are the molding clay
He created us as His great masterpiece
and His marvelous works shall never cease

The Master's plan is in His hand and we need just be still
because if and when He sees fit, time will reveal
