Your Hands

Several months ago, I heard this song on the radio, and I was totally mesmerized by it - the music, the lyrics...everything. I sat in the garage with the car running, so that I could hear the end and (hopefully) find out what the title was and who sang it. Then (of course) they never said, and I've been wondering ever since.

Today, a friend of mine wrote me an e-mail saying she had heard this song and thought of me. The song is "Your Hands" by JJ Heller, and I thought I would share the lyrics. If you have $.99, it is worth the download!

Your Hands

I have unanswered prayers
I have trouble I wish wasn't there
And I have asked a thousand ways
That You would take my pain away
That You would take my pain away

I am trying to understand
How to walk this weary land
Make straight the paths that crookedly lie
Oh Lord, before these feet of mine
Oh Lord, before these feet of mine

When my world is shaking
Heaven stands
When my heart is breaking
I never leave Your hands

When You walked upon the Earth
You healed the broken, lost, and hurt
I know You hate to see me cry
One day You will set all things right
Yea, one day You will set all things right

When my world is shaking
Heaven stands
When my heart is breaking
I never leave Your hands

Your hands
Your hands that shape the world
Are holding me, they hold me still
Your hands that shape the world
Are holding me, they hold me still

When my world is shaking
Heaven stands
When my heart is breaking
I never leave You when...

When my world is shaking
Heaven stands
When my heart is breaking
I never leave...
I never leave Your hands
