lyrics
Peel away this veneer of false perfection
Reveal the rough edges of my heart
Use me in the building of your kingdom here on earth
Jesus, carpenter from Nazareth
You mimic the work your Father does
By your Spirit, you're carving me into your likeness
Speak your truth, piercing like a chisel
Shaping me into something that's brand new
Use me in the building of your kingdom here on earth.
Thank you that you're never giving up
On your patient work in me
Thank you that you've covered me with grace
In your love I'm made complete
Reveal the rough edges of my heart
Use me in the building of your kingdom here on earth
Jesus, carpenter from Nazareth
You mimic the work your Father does
By your Spirit, you're carving me into your likeness
Speak your truth, piercing like a chisel
Shaping me into something that's brand new
Use me in the building of your kingdom here on earth.
Thank you that you're never giving up
On your patient work in me
Thank you that you've covered me with grace
In your love I'm made complete
