Whenever our hearts broken and the world is all we know When we pray and call, Jesus is at work To fix us and forgive; improving mind and soul No work is greater if hardwork is shared Truly, Jesus had proven that a carpenter's noble To help us build our dreams and make the world stronger "In Him, all things hold together"'.
