giving my clay
into the hands of the Potter
to be used, to be offered
to be given, as He will
for His holy purpose
giving my clay
my body, my substance
all that I am, to You,
into the hands of God
giving my clay
into the hands of the Potter
to be used, to be offered
to be given, as He will
for His holy purpose
