The Potter's Hand
Words and Music by Darlene Zschech
A Cappella Arrangement by David Wesley
©1994 Wondrous Worship

Like most songs from my Evolution of 1990's Worship medley, this 1994 song didn't cross my radar until the 2000's. When I worked as a worship intern at my church during grad school, one of my jobs was to arrange new lead sheets for our vocalists to learn consistent harmonies. The Potter's Hand was among those songs. The chord structure moves in and out of dissonance and tension, like a piece of clay assuming various forms before reaching its final shape and baked in the kiln. None of us has reached our final shape, when we will be like Christ and be able to know Him fully. We cooperate with the Holy Spirit in the process of sanctification, as His power transforms us. Sometimes we find ourselves in twisty, awkward shapes, but by faith we know that God will complete his masterpiece - us!
