The world is fast becoming younger
C Bm D
The news is all they've ever known
D C D
They've seen the wars, the hurt, the hunger
C Bm D
How will they choose when they are grown?
D C D
What do you tell forever's children
C Bm D
When it's their turn to hurt and heal?
D C D
Whatever spins a grim tornado
C Bm D
Can also turn a potter's wheel
Bm D Bm D
Take a little clay, put it on a wheel
Bm D A D
Get a little hint how God must feel
Bm D Bm D
Give a little turn, listen to it spin
Bm D A D
Make it in the shape you want it in
D C D
Tell with your life a bloody story
C Bm D
Teach to their dreams not burning steel
D C D
It's not in bombs where lies the glory
C Bm D
But in what's shattered on the field
D C D
The potter's wheel takes love and caring
C Bm D
Skill and patience fast and slow
D C D
The works it makes are easily broken
C Bm D
Once they survive the potter's throw
Bm D Bm D
Take a little clay, put it on a wheel
Bm D A D
Get a little hint how God must feel
Bm D Bm D
Give a little turn, listen to it spin
Bm D A D
Make it in the shape you want it in
D C D
Some day some children will be digging
C Bm D
In some long forgotten ground
D C D
And they'll find our civilization
C Bm D
Or what's left of it to be found
D C D
They'll find the weapons of destruction
C Bm D
But buried deeper in the hole
D C D
They'll find a message and a promise
C Bm D
In the sand, the potter's bowl
Bm D Bm D
Take a little clay, put it on a wheel
Bm D A D
Get a little hint how God must feel

Earth and water and wind conspire
Bm D A D
With human hands and love and fire

Take a little clay, put it on a wheel

Get a little hint how God must feel

Give a little turn, listen to it spin
Bm D Em D Bm D
Make it in the shape you want it in
