Your Hands
by JJ Heller
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
You would take my pain away
I am trying to understand
How to walk this weary land
Make straight the paths that crooked 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
Yeah, 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 that shaped the world
Are holding me
They hold me still
a few weeks ago i was on my way to school and i first heard this song. immediately i was overcome with emotion and the tears started flowing. these words were exactly what i needed at that moment. sometimes things in life seem so uncertain and we are overcome with grief. sometimes it seems as though death and sickness and trials are all around us. it's so comforting to be reminded that even when our world is shaking and our hearts are breaking, we never leave HIS hands.
**if you've never heard this song, you need to google it...you won't be disappointed!
