I need to find music and lyrics for "The Brush"

Hi Guest,

Do you have any other details? Any lyrics you remember? This will help narrow it down.

Thanks,
Steve

It's by the Speer's. the song deals with life as a canvas and taking the paintbrush in our own hands and making a mess. Then handing the brush back to Jesus..............sorry that's about all i know

And I handed it back to Jesus - the brush of my will

The Brush

Life started out like a canvas
And God started painting on me
but I took the paintbrush from Jesus
and painted what I wished to see
the colors I painted kept running
And the objects were all out of size
I had made a mess of my painting
My way now seemed so unwise
Ooo,Ooo,so Ibrought my painting
to Jesus. All the colors,all the pieces
so wrong. In the markets of earth
it was worthless.,but His blood
made my painting belong,He
worked with no condemnation,
never mentioned the mess I had
made,then he dipped His brush
in the rainbow,and He signed it,
"the price has been paid",when I
gave the brush back to Jesus,
when I gave the brush back to him,
He started all over life's canvas
to fill,when I gave to Jesus the
brush of my will.

I still need to find the musical score or sheet music

Hi guys I'm a song leader at my church in Alabama and the brush is in a red bound book called hymns volume 12 if I remember correctly
