The Master Artist

Doth riches, good deeds, or fame determine your role?
Can other fellow men judge the worth of a soul?
Who can determine the value of a woman or a man?
Only the Master Artist who made you by hand.

As fine paintings can’t compare, each one’s a work of art.
Your value lies in Him because you’re a part of His heart.
So don’t worry or fret if others treat you with scorn.
Their own paint may be fading, flaking and worn.

But through slow steady work of the Master Artist’s toil,
Their value can be seen as He removes the soil.
Yours too will shine forth, when only in Him you trust.
Learning to see yourself through His eyes is an absolute must.
