Pieces

The Lord thy God in the midst of thee is mighty; He will save, He will rejoice over thee with joy; He will rest in His love, He will joy over thee with singing. Zeph. 3:17

We first heard this song from a young lady named Florence who always sang it when she visited our church in the 1980s.

Pieces
Pieces, pieces
So many pieces to my life.
Scattered all around
And some of them are gone
And I know that I can’t ever
Put them back together again.

Pieces, pieces
So many pieces to my life.
A puzzle left unfinished
Jumbled and unformed
Who can really ever
Fit it all together again?

In a vision, like a daydream
That filters through your mind,
I saw Jesus coming closer
Holding all my hopes combined.
He spoke with great compassion
As He put one hand on me
And in His other hand He held
What I could never see.

He said, “Pieces, pieces
I’ve got all the pieces to your life.”
“A thousand tiny fragments
Of every single day
I can put them all together
And there’ll never be another one who can.”

He said, “Pieces, pieces
I’ve got all the pieces to your life.”
“In my hand I hold the pieces
Of every single day
I can put them all together
So they’ll never fall away
I can put them all together
And there’ll never be another one who can.”
