The promised word
will shape you and me
into the pottery
that we should be
we seem to complain
of the pottery wheel ride
not realizing in the end
it will save our little Hyde
And we whine and complain
and cause trouble for the potter
When all he wants is a son or a daughter
He's trying to make us
of his very best
And after he's done
give us...
eternal rest
But we think we should have
the most beautiful clay
even if it will
become ruined some day
So he tries to explain
what he has to do
So we understand
And want his best too
