Tribute to The O'Neal Twins- "The Broken Vessel" Chords

_ _ _ [Eb] _ _ _
_ One thing [Bbm] I don't ever want to forget [Bb] in life, _ _ _ _
[D] and that [Db] is the day that the [Ab] Lord saved me.
[Ab] _ _ [Db] _
I'm [Ab] reminded of a story that I once heard about the potter _ [F] who _ [Eb] saw a vessel that had been broken [Bbm] _ _ [Bb] from the [Fm] wind and the rain.
_ [Eb] _ _ _
[Ab] And being a dedicated potter, [Db] _ he [Ab] sought back together again.
_ _ _ _ [F]
That's the way my [Eb] life was one [Gb] day. _
[Bbm] It was broken [Bb] into many pieces, _ _ [Eb] but one Tuesday [Ab] morning Jesus picked up the pieces, _ _
[Db] put them all back [Ab] together again, _ and made me a new creature.
[Bbm] _ [Eb] _ _ And that's the way _ [Bbm] the Lord [Bb] _
brought me to the light.
_ _ [Eb] _
And [Ab] I'd like to pass the story on to you tonight _ [Db] as [Ab] my rhyme runs back to that day.
The story goes like this.
_ _ _ The potter _ _ [Abm] _ _ [Bbm] _
_ _ _ _ _ _
[F] _ _ [Ab] saw a vessel _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _
[Bb] that _ [Eb] had been broken _ _ [Bb] from _
_ _ [Fm] the wind _
_ _ _ [Db] _ _ [Ab] _
and the rain. _
_ But _ _ [Gb] _
[Ab] he _ _ _ [Db] _
_ _ sought _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ with so much _ _ _ [Ab] compassion,
[C] _
_ [Fm] _ _ Oh _ Lordy, _ _ _ _
to put it [Bb] _
_ _ _ back together _ _ _ _ [Bbm] _
_ _ again. _ _
_ _ [Eb] _ _ _ [Bbm] _
_ _ _ _ _ [Ab] _
_ But I _ _
[Bm] _ _ [Db] _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ was [Ab] that broken vessel. _ _
[Gb] _ _ _ [Ab] Oh my [Gb] Lord.
_ _ [Ab] _ _ _
[Db] _ That no one _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ thought [Ab] was any good. _ _
_ [G] _ _ But I prayed [Bbm] that morning.
_ [Ab] I [Db]
said, Lord, _ _ _ _ you [Ab] are the [D] potter. _ _ _ _ _
[Ab] _ And I _ _
[Gb] _ am [F] the clay.
[Eb] _ _ _ _ [Bbm] Make me _ [C] over _ _
[Bbm] _ again [D] _ _ _
_ _ _ [Eb] _ today.
[Ab] _ _ _ _ Lord, [Db] oh.
_ _ [Ab] _ This is [Ebm] what the Lord did one [Ab] day. _ _
[Db] _ _ _ _ Jesus _ _ _ _ picked _ [D] up [Db] _ _ _
the _ _ [Ab] pieces.
_ _ [Db] Oh [Ab] yes it _ is.
_ _ [Bb] _
Of [Eb] my broken heart. _
_ [C] _ _ [Fm] My broken heart.
_ _ [Eb] _ _
_ [Ab] _ That day. _
_ _ This is what the Lord [F] did for me.
Oh [Ab] yes. _
[Db] And then he _ made _ _ _ _ _ me _ a new vessel. _ _ _
Lord have mercy. _ _ _
_ _ _ _ [Bb] And [D] _ _ _ revived _
[Bbm] _ my [D] _ _ _
_ soul [Ebm] _ _ _
[Ab] _ again.
_ I'd like for the [Db] choir to tell you about it.
[Ab] _ One [F] day Jesus [Ab] picked up the pieces. _
[Db] _ _ He _ _ _ _ _ picked _
[D] up _ _ the _ [Ab] _ pieces. _ _
_ _ Oh yes it is.
_ _ _ [Bb] _ [Eb] Of my _ broken heart.
_ _ _ [Fm] My broken _ _ _ [Eb] _ _ _
[Ab] _ heart. That day. _
_ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ This [Db] _ is _ _ _ _ _ what the Lord did _ _ for me.
_ Oh yes.
_ _ [Ab] _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ And [D] revived _ [Ebm] _ _ _
[Bbm] _ _ _ _ _ _
[D] _ _ _ [Bb] _ my [Ab] soul again.
_ He picked [Db] me up.
_ [Ab] And he turned me around.
_ _ _ And [Eb] revived. _ _ _ _
[Gb] _ [Bb] _ _ _ _ _
_ _ [Eb] _ _ _ _
_ _ [Ab] _ Oh [Db] my Lord.
I [Ab] was a wretched girl.
Oh yes I was.
_ _ [Eb]
He _ _ _ _ [Bbm] _
_ _ [D] _ _ _ _
_ _ [Eb] _ _ _ [Ab] _
_ _ made me a [Db] _ _ new vessel.
[Ab] Oh yes.
