Na Casa do Oleiro
Samuel Mariano
At the Potter's House
The word of the Lord came to me saying
Come down to the potter's house, I want to talk to you
So I got up and obeyed his voice
And to God's address I began to walk
Arriving at the potter's house, I stopped to observe
A portion of clay that was on the wheels
And the potter's hands did what they wanted in it
And he formed a vase in his own way
But after contemplating that scene
The vessel in the potter's hand broke
The potter took the vase even though it was broken
He put it on the wheels, and a new vessel he formed
Then I heard the voice of God
Can't I do it with you anyway?
Like clay in the potter's hand, so are you
I do what I want, my power has no limits, it has no end
I'll break you, make you again
And in my house you will be a new vessel
Come down to the pottery and I will shape you
When you are shaped then I will use you
I break you
Makeout
I undo
Redo
I give the shine with anointing, you are mine
Fear not
Go straight on
Be strong
Be a believer
Sing and be happy
And say on earth that I am God
