By a thread that winds
Through our lives and binds
The beginning to the end
Like a length of string
Seems a slender thing
Upon which our lives depend
By a thread that's spooled
From the source that ruled
Long before our day on earth
From the mighty throne
Where events are sewn
To unravel with our birth
By a thread that runs
Throughout everyone's
Whole existence ‘till it breaks
We see loops and lines
Fickle fate designs
And the twists and turns it takes
By a thread to stitch
Each occurrence which
Forms the fabric of our day
Our Creator sews
Us the sort of clothes
Our immortal souls’ display
