As children bring their broken toys, with tears for us to mend,
I brought my broken dreams to God because He is 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 again and cried, "How can you be so slow?"
"My child," He said, "what could I do? You never did let them go."
