Treasure in Clay Jars – v3

Light of heaven
gifts of the Spirit
Placed in clay pots,
misshapen, chipped,
so badly flawed

Life-giving water
filled to the rim
Pouring out your message

God’s love, His grace, God’s gifts
placed within clay jars, treasure
Transforming us, worthy vessels
to be filled, to be emptied
Your Spirit within

Treasure in clay jars
not meant to be stored,
called to be shared, to be poured
