Vessel
by Chris Sligh

Safe inside Your hand, You hold me
Pain and tribulations mold me
I try to run away from You
The pain’s too great You put me through
I find myself on my knees to pray
And then You hear the words
You long for me to say…

Make of me a vessel that You can always use
No matter how You break me, what I win or what I lose
Let me be a vessel, pure and holy, perfect in Your eyes
Lord, hear me when I cry for You to make me a vessel

Deep inside my heart, You’ve shown me
Despite all my sins, You’ve known me
I try to run away again
I break Your heart with all my sin
I fall to You with tear-filled eyes
I run to You with broken heart and cry…

Make of me a vessel that You can always use
No matter how You break me, what I win or what I lose
Let me be a vessel, pure and holy, perfect in Your eyes
Lord, hear me when I cry for You to make me a vessel

Make me into what You want me to be
Oh Lord, may my prayer be, oh…

Make of me a vessel that You can always use
No matter how You break me, what I win or what I lose
Let me be a vessel, pure and holy, perfect in Your eyes
Lord, hear me when I cry for You to make me
Oh Lord, make me a vessel
