O Barro e o Oleiro
Chagas Sobrinho
The Clay and the Potter
You are in the trial, the struggle and suffering are great
You have faced great barriers, great torment
I want you to know that even so, you are not alone
I won't abandon you, even if you are in trial
Even in suffering, you are protected by my hand
I haven't forgotten you, I haven't forgotten you, I am watching you
I have broken a new vessel and am making it anew
I am with you all the time
In my hands, you are the clay, I am the potter
You have prayed and I have heard your prayer
In the early morning, I have heard your groaning
Do not worry, in due time the blessing will come
Wait steadfastly
Be an example to my people
I am breaking you to make a new vessel
I haven't forgotten you, I haven't forgotten you, I am watching you
I have broken a new vessel and am making it anew
I am with you all the time
In my hands, you are the clay, I am the potter
I haven't forgotten you, I haven't forgotten you, I am watching you
I have broken a new vessel and am making it anew
I am with you all the time
In my hands, you are the clay, I am the potter
