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
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

living

Living is a tricky thing. So are emotions and feelings. Sometimes it's hard to determine between what feels right and what is right. I'm pretty sure that we, as humans, have an uncanny ability to trick ourselves. We can justify any action, maybe even by twisting scripture. It's easy to see where you screwed up when it's all over. Probably, cause when we aren't trying to justify our actions with God's words, we are free to see what they really mean. I have an inflated view of myself. I need God. (I say that and I know that in my head, but do I really believe it?) Man, I am so human.

But seek first his kingdom and his righteousness, and all these things will be given to you as well. --Matthew 6:33
