Reproof
As children bring their broken toys,
With tears, for us to mend,
I brought my broken dreams to God,
Because He was my Friend.
But then, instead of leaving Him
In peace, to work alone;
I hung around and tried to help
With ways that were my own.
At last I snatched them back and cried,
“How can You be so slow?”
“My child,” He said, “what could I do?
You never did let go!”
