No Controle do Vaso
Suzana Silva
In the Potter's Hands
Down to the potter's house
I want to talk to you
I have a mystery with you
Come down quick, I want to show you
Arriving at the house, I saw the potter
Shaping the clay just like he wanted
But suddenly, the vase broke
And something amazing happened, I saw
The potter takes the clay, kneads the clay
Adjusts the clay, remakes the vase
And I heard God's voice saying calmly
See the clay like this? It's Israel
I do as I please, I am the potter
I break, knead, remake
The vase, I put in the fire
Then I remake the vase again
I am the potter and I lead the people
In the midst of yours, I am the potter
In your walk, I am the potter
In your lying down, I am the potter
In your life, I am the potter
In your sorrows, I am the potter
In the middle of the war, I am the potter
In this struggle, I am the potter
Calm down, I am the potter and as the potter I do
I am still in control of the clay
So rest and be at peace
I will enter, I will enter the hospital, I will heal
I will free, I will work, organize
I will save your family
I am life, change
I break the bow and cut the spear
And in the end, I will use the vase
In the midst of yours, I am the potter
In your walk, I am the potter
In your lying down, I am the potter
In your sorrows, I am the potter
In the middle of the war, I am the potter
In this struggle, I am the potter
Calm down, I am the potter and as the potter I do
I am still in control of the clay
So rest and be at peace
I will break, stir, shape, remake, do, act, work
And in the end, I will use the vase
I will stir, shape, remake, do, arrive, act, work
And in the end, I will use the vase
