Reclaimed and Restored by Gertrude Jefferies A dirty old vessel is what I was, So unclean, corrupt and defiled. But as the Master walked by it one day, Picked up this old vessel and smiled. I'll just take this one home and work on it, Till it's shining, cleansed and restored. He lovingly started to remove the dirt And stains, from the life it endured. He worked long and hard on the old vessel, It was dirty and badly marred. But at last the Master began to see It's value beneath all the scars. As he worked, a beauty began to shine It's worth and value shone through, And this vessel became a joy to the Lord, He kept it near him all the time. He continues to shine and keep it clean, For dust of the world would cling And bring back tarnish he removed Devaluing it with it's sting. This vessel delights being clean and whole, The refuse and shame now are gone. A vessel of service it longs to be, For the Master, to whom she belongs. |
