Rejected of men for being too good <br />we crucified You on a cross of wood <br />But Your Father had other plans for You <br />for the temple was to be built anew <br /> <br />A building not made of rock or of stone <br />but one made up of Christians alone <br />Built of people saved by the grace of God <br />the Cornerstone is Jesus Christ the Lord <br /> <br />A great temple not built by human skill <br />but made up of those who follow God's will <br />The living temple of Your body Lord <br />and its' builder and its' maker is God <br /> <br />To build it the old temple had to go <br />through death so that You could raise it up so. <br />This is marvellous in our sight O Lord <br />One in Christ we are the temple of God. <br /> <br />(additional background information is provided in the Poem's story box below)<br /><br />Roy Allen<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/today-the-cornerstone/
