Story Behind the Song
Driving to work one morning (you know the REAL job), I just started singing these lyrics. I guess I should list the "Big Guy" as my co-writer.
Lyrics
Lord make of me Your vessel, bring me close to You
in every breath I take, in every deed I do
help me walk upon Your word, Oh keep me in thy sight
in the sunshine of the day and through the darkest night.
Chorus:
In every word I speak, in every deed I do.
Make of me Your vessel, bring me close to You
Lord be near and touch me, mold me to your way
for You are the Potter, and I'm but simple clay
give me words in my mouth, to speak out for Your sake.
in the calm of the dawn, or in the stormy wake.
Give me strength and courage, to stand against the pain
of the lost and hostile world, who hate Your very name.
make me Your humble servant, to do my tiny part
to spread Your love and Gospel, even to the hardest hearts.
