The Potter Knows The Clay lyrics

I know you are going through the fire Its getting hard to stand the heat But even harder is the wondering Is God's hand still on me Its lonely in the flames When you're counting days of pain But the potter knows the clay How much pressure it can take How many times around the wheel ‘Til there's submission to his will He's planned a beautiful design But it'll take some fire and time Its gonna be okay ‘Cause the potter knows the clay Friend I just came through that fire Not too very long ago And looking back I can see why And that my God was in control But on the hottest days I'd cry Oh lord, isn't it about time
