A man was chopping at a stone, I asked him what he did
He said I
cut
these
stones
to
size,
just
as
my
master
bids.
I
am
a
lowly
stone-cutter, this bitter man did cry:
And
Ill be working at this job until the day I die."
A man was chopping at a stone, I asked him what he did
He said "I cut these stones to size, just as my master bids."
"I am a loving father, and a husband to my wife:"
"I shape these stones the best I can to give them a good life."
A man was chopping at a stone, I asked him what he did
He said "I cut these stones to size, just as my master bids."
He raised his eyes unto the skies, his vision shined so clear
"Im
building
a
cathedral
to
last
a
thousand
years.
Building a cathedral, or cutting up a stone
We make these choices every day, at work and in our homes.
Throughout our life-long journey, wherever we may roam
We're building a cathedral, or cutting up a stone.
