The old wood carver sat on his bench The same old way he always had The gifts he made were world renowned The best that ever could be found Then one day he stepped outside Upon his doorstep there to find Many gifts had been returned Some were bruised and some were burned So tell me Does anyone else see The tears in his eyes As he sadly tries To somehow comprehend Just how did These people come to this They tear and destroy His work and his joy In the name of convenience And so he journeyed into town Hailed by stones and angry shouts The mob that gathered screamed and cried This old man ruined their lives Few voices rose in protest The least of these, the ones who cared They were silenced all the more If they had never spoke before So tell me Does anyone else see The tears in his eyes As he sadly tries To somehow comprehend Just how did These people come to this They tear and destroy His work and his joy In the name of convenience Nothing he did say could quell Their minds made up his gifts were hell That all he did was steal from them But time was never theirs to spend What seemed to puzzle him was that Most who had received had asked Why did they ask if they had not Desired for the things they bought So tell me Does anyone else see The tears in his eyes As he sadly tries To somehow comprehend Just how did These people come to this They tear and destroy His work and his joy In the name of convenience My father God sat on his throne He held the world that he had wove And there my God began to cry There with precious stolen lives
Struggling with Returns? Become a better singer in 30 days with these videos!
