Made by God

Royston 1946 (Reading)

Woven together on a heavenly loom
I was formed by God whilst in my mother’s womb.
Then the days of my life in His book were penned
even before I was born my life was planned.

Each chapter was scribed by a God of grace
Paragraphs written before life took place.
Ev’ry moment before it came to pass
God wrote them from the first day ‘til the last.
