Only through You am I able – v2

I am mortal, I am made from the dust,
my clay in in Your hands, oh God,
You mold me on the Potter’s wheel,
I long to be used by You, my God,
to be a worthy vessel filled,
to be poured, to be shared,
oh Spirit, my risen Lord…
 
Only through You I am able,
to mountains, to get out of bed,
to overcome my fears, my trials,
to leave my past behind me,
to greet the new day, the morning,
You are my strength, my strong fortress,
You are the power that gives me life…
 
I pray that I am Your willing servant,
Even as I am broken, broken, Lord,
an empty vessel to be filled,
held in Your hands, filled,
that I may pour out a blessing,
that Your message would be shared,
that I may go where I am lead…
