"The Potter (Nothing Is Wasted)" lyrics

"The Potter (Nothing Is Wasted)"

Sometimes life can take more than it gives
Can steal your confidence 'till questions are all you have
Sometimes hurt can feel like you're in hell
Leave you just a broken shell
What can God do with that?

Whatever you're facing
If you feel like you're breaking
He is picking up the pieces
He is remaking
He's molding your story
Like clay He's reshaping
And in the hands of the Potter
Nothing is wasted

And if your dreams that all go up in smoke
If you start losing hope
And slowly start to fall
In the fire He's still holding you
He's always working something new
No, there's nothing He can't use
He uses it all

Whatever you're facing
If you feel like you're breaking
He is picking up the pieces
He is remaking
He's molding your story
Like clay He's reshaping
And in the hands of the Potter
Nothing is wasted

Even in the middle of the madness
Even in the seasons of the sadness
He's up to something
He's up to something
Even when you're trying hard to see it
Even when you struggle to believe it
He's up to something, oh

Whatever you're facing
If you feel like you're breaking
He is picking up the pieces
He is remaking
He's molding your story
Like clay He's reshaping
And in the hands of the Potter
Nothing is wasted

It's in the hands of the Potter
Nothing is wasted
In the hands of the Potter
Nothing is wasted
