Vessel Of Honour I’m Longing To Be Lyrics

Verse 1

A Vessel Of Honor, I’m Longing To Be.
As Clay To The Potter, May I Be To Thee.
You May Have To Break Down, Resistance At Times.
But Lord Don’t Stop Molding And Shaping My Life.

Chorus

Shape Me, Dear Father, Please Make Me Like You.
Mold Me Completely So I Can Be True.
If You Have To Break Me, May I Understand
You’re Still Loving And Molding My Life In Your Hands.

Verse 2

It Would Be Such Disservice, Results Would Be Nil
If Clay Rejects Potter, And It Seeks Its Own Will.
It Could Only Be Cast Out, To The Old Potter’s Mill.
Please Don’t Cast Me Out Master, Put Me Back On Your Wheel.

Chorus

Shape Me, Dear Father, Please Make Me Like You.
Mold Me Completely So I Can Be True.
If You Have To Break Me, May I Understand
You’re Still Loving And Molding My Life In Your Hands.

Notes

The hymn Vessel of Honour I’m Longing to Be is a heartfelt prayer of surrender, reflecting a Christian’s desire to be shaped and molded by God into a useful instrument for His glory. It draws from the biblical imagery of the potter and clay (Jeremiah 18:1-6), showing a willingness to yield completely to God’s will—even if it means being broken and remade.

The song reminds believers that resisting God’s shaping leads to spiritual barrenness, while submitting to His refining hand results in true purpose and service. Ultimately, it’s a declaration of trust that God’s molding process is an act of love and preparation for His work.
