Gathering my broken clay – v2

Gathering my broken clay
scattered in the world,
the hardness of my heart;
God picking me up
gently holding me, the Potter,
laying me in the depths

In the waters I die
God making my clay wet;
redeeming me completely
raising me from the deep
sending me forth
an appointment to keep
