ROMANS – The Potter’s Hand by Bro H

Verse 1 Not all the seed of Abraham Are counted in the promised line “In Isaac shall thy seed be called” Not by the flesh but by design Before the children yet were born Before they’d done a single deed The purpose stood, not made by works But by the One who calls the seed Chorus In the Potter’s hand we’re formed From the dust before the dawn One to honor, one to fall Still His purpose stands through all Clay and vessel, shaped and planned No man stands against His hand In the Potter’s hand we stand Or fall within the Potter’s hand Verse 2 Two in the womb, one breath, one blood Yet not the same when all is told The elder bows, the younger stands Not by will and not by hold It’s not of him who runs the race Nor him who strives to claim the right But mercy rests where it is set And truth stands firm beyond our sight Verse 3 “Jacob I loved, Esau set aside” The line was drawn before their days Pharaoh was raised to show His power His name declared through all the earth’s ways He shows His mercy where He wills And leaves the rest to what they’ve chosen No man can turn what He has purposed No word He has spoken will be broken Chorus In the Potter’s hand we’re formed From the dust before the dawn One to honor, one to fall Still His purpose stands through all Clay and vessel, shaped and planned No man stands against His hand In the Potter’s hand we stand Or fall within the Potter’s hand Verse 4 So who are we to answer back Or question how the line is drawn The clay can’t rise against the hand That shaped the night and formed the dawn A vessel doesn’t choose its role Nor write the end that it will be The Potter forms according to His will From dust to His decree Bridge The Potter holds the right to shape From the same lump as He wills One to honor, one to use According to His purpose still With patience He endures the weight Of vessels walking out their way And shows His glory in the ones Prepared beforehand for that day Final Chorus In the Potter’s hand we’re formed Not by chance and not by norm Before the breath, before the name He has set the end the same Clay will answer to His stand None escape what He has planned In the Potter’s hand we stand Or fall within the Potter’s hand
