These Hands

(album: Shake Heaven - 2011)

[Spoken:]
You need to know how much I love. You really need to know how much I care for you

I engraved your name in heaven, designed you from the start,
I healed your ailing body, I fixed your broken heart
I did it with my hands, I did it with my hands

I wrote down the instructions, to guide when you were lost
And I gathered all your sin and shame and carried it to the cross
I did it with my hands, yes, I did it with my hands

There's nothing that's beyond me
There's nothing I can't do
Can't you see, I'm reaching out for you

But these hands, they hold he stars up in the sky
These hands, hold every tear that you have cried
These hands, hold the nails that paid the price
They hold every sacrifice that saved your life, these hands

Your holding un-forgiveness,
Your failures doubts and fears are speaking louder than my voice
That says I'm standing here,
Put it in my hands, put it in my hands

Now just take a look around you, when you feel you've lost control
You'll see you're not the only one in need of letting go
Put it in my hands, put it in my hands

There's nothing that's beyond me
There's nothing I can't do
Why can't you see, I'm reaching out for you

These hands, they hold he stars up in the sky
These hands, hold every tear that you have cried
These hands, hold the nails that paid the price
They hold every sacrifice that saved your life, these hands

They hold the stars up in the sky
These hands, hold every tear that you have cried
These hands, hold the nails that paid the price
They hold every sacrifice that saved your life, these hands

These hands
These hands-yeah

I made the oceans and the seas
And everything that moves and breathes and I'm reaching for you.
I made the trees that made the cross.
I made a way, so if you're lost, I'm reaching for you

You need to know how much I care
Just take a look, the proofs right here, I am reaching for you
They hold me high, They stretch my wide,
But I press through for you, so I could reach out for you

Yeah

I am reaching for You
Lord, I'm reaching for You
oh, Jesus, we are reaching for You
I am reaching for You
I'm reaching for You
