Rusty, broken tools

    D	   Em	     G				KB:t65 102
The carver takes his carving knife
      D	     Bm	     G
(and) slowly carves away
  D	  Em	 G
Using his trusty instrument
   D	     Bm	      G
to carve the wood his way
    D	    Em	     G		
The carving knife is useless by itself
D      Bm    G
It can just obey
    D	    Em	   G
the carving of the carvers hand
	 C2		A7
which creates something good.
 {Old: It's a tool in His hand}
 
	[chorus] 
D 	  G
Sometimes He tears down
   Bm	    A			   D	   G Bm A
to build up that which should have been.
x	x	    x
He will Replace the bad parts
x	  x		x
with only Quality to be seen.
x			 x
I wanna be a tool in His hand.
 
Just one little grain of sand
 
amoungst a massive sea of sand dunes
 
He can still use me.
 
 [v2]- carver carves an instrument
gently shapes the wood
with many years experience
carving so it sounds good
An instrument to praise our creator
that is what we should
be working on together, yeah
_ <-- the cursor :-)
 
 
[bridge]
Rusty, broken tools
He can still use us,
He still loves us.
This rusty, broken tool
wants to be His faithful servant.

------old version-------

 
[v1]The carver takes his carving knife
slowly carves away
Using his trusty carving knife
to carve the wood his way
The carving knife is useless by itself
It can just obey
the carving of the carvers hand
which creates something good.
 {Old: It's a tool in His hand}
 
[chorus] 
 
Sometimes He tears down
to build up that which should have been.
He will Replace the bad parts
replace them with only Quality to be seen.
I wanna be a tool in His hand.
Just one little grain of sand
He can still use me.
 
 [v2]- carver carves an instrument
gently shapes the wood
with many years experience
carving so it sounds good
An instrument to praise our creator
that is what we should

Rusty, broken tools
He can still use us,
He still loves us.
This rusty, broken tool
wants to be His faithful servant.
