Masterpiece

by Sandy Patti

Before you had a name
Or opened up your eyes,
Or anyone could recognize your face.
You were being formed so delicate in size
Secluded in God’s safe and hidden place.

With your tiny hands and little tiny feet
And little eyes that shimmer like a pearl.
He breathed in you a song and to make it all complete
He brought the masterpiece into the world.

Chorus:

You are a masterpiece
A new creation he has formed
And you’re as soft and fresh As a snowy winter morn
And I’m so glad that God has given you to me
Little lamb of God You are a masterpiece

And now you’re growing up Your life’s a miracle
Every time I look at you, I stand in awe
Because I see in you A reflection of me
And you’ll always be my little lamb from God
And as your life goes on each day
How I pray that you will see
Just how much your life has meant to me
And I’m so proud of you
What else is there to say
Just to be the masterpiece He created you to be

You are a masterpiece
