The Master's Hand
'Twas battered and scared, and the auctioneer Thought it scarcely worth his while To waste much time on the old violin, But he held it up with a smile. 'What am I bidden, good folks,' he cried, 'Who'll start bidding for me? A dollar, a dollar - now who'll make it two _ Two dollars, and who'll make it three? 'Three dollars once, three dollars twice, Going for three'. . . but no! From the room far back a gray-haired man Came forward and picked up the bow; Then wiping the dust from the old violin, And tightening up the strings, He played a melody,pure and sweet, As sweet as an angel sings.

And he held it up with the bow; 'A thousand dollars - and who'll make it two? 更多更詳盡歌詞 在 ※ Mojim.com 魔鏡歌詞網 Two thousand - and who'll make it three? Three thousand once, three thousand twice And going - and gone,' said he. The people cheered, but some of them cried, 'We do not quite understand - What changed its worth?' The man replied: 'The touch of the masters hand.' And many a man with life out of tune, And battered and torn with sin, Is auctioned cheap to a thoughtless crowd. Much like the old violin. A 'mess of pottage,' a glass of wine, A game and he travels on, He's going once, and going twice - He's going - and almost gone! But the MASTER comes, and the foolish crowd, Never can quite understand, The worth of a soul, and the change that's wrought By the touch of the MASTER'S hand.
