Common Garments · letra

One day a roman soldier In a shameful gambling game Won the blood stained garment That once had clothed my king Just a cheap robe of Lenin No great value did it hold But when worn by the master It was worth more than gold
Yon see a few days before This old garment had changed the life Of a tired and helpless woman Who'd believed with all her might She'd reached out and touched it With hope to be restored She knew this plain old garment Was the vestige of the Lord God uses common garments To do uncommon things And God uses common people To live out his uncommon dreams Its not what you are that matters Its what he can make you to be Cause if God can take an old common Garment and change a life Then surely he can use you and me
You see we are the reason That Jesus came to die We have been chosen To send forth his light So it doesn't matter If your worth is great or small God needs some willing vessels Just common garments that's all
God uses common garments To do uncommon things And God uses common people To live out his uncommon dreams Its not what you are that matters Its what he can make you to be Cause if God can take an old common Garment and change a life Then surely he can use you and me
