Jesus I Need A Carpenter Like You Poem by Mark Heathcote

Jesus, I have sinned
I need a carpenter like you
I'm riddled with woodworm
through and through
my heart and soul needs a little glue.

Lord what, am I to do.
Like sea wood, I've travelled
rolling along in every dip and furrow
with nowhere really to belong.

Jesus, I have sinned
I need a carpenter like you
to dove joint me to you
Lord, what am I to do.
I've worn out my cement shoes
but I never quite found
a river, quite deep enough to drown.

Lord, what am I to do.
Like sea wood, I've travelled
Rolling along in every dip and furrow
with nowhere really to belong.

Lord, I have begged you to take me home
Lord, I'm riddled with woodworm
through and through
Lord like a child's broken wooden toy,
my heart and soul needs a little glue.

Jesus, I have sinned.
I need a carpenter like you.
