A Builder Or a Wrecker<\/b><\/p>\n
As I watched them tear a building down A gang of men in a busy town With a ho-heave-ho, and a lusty yell They swung a beam and the side wall fell<\/p>\n
I asked the foreman, \u201cAre these men skilled, And the men you\u2019d hire if you wanted to build?\u201d He gave a laugh and said, \u201cNo, indeed, Just common labor is all I need.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cI can easily wreck in a day or two, What builders have taken years to do.\u201d And I thought to myself, as I went my way Which of these roles have I tried to play?<\/p>\n
Am I a builder who works with care, Measuring life by rule and square? Am I shaping my work to a well-made plan Patiently doing the best I can?<\/p>\n
Or am I a wrecker who walks to town Content with the labor of tearing down? \u201cO Lord let my life and my labors be That which will build for eternity!\u201d<\/p>\n
