LYRICS

Put your hand in the hand of the Man who stilled the water.
Put your hand in the hand of the Man who calmed the sea.
Take a look at yourself and you can look at others diff’rently
By puttin’ your hand in the hand of the Man from a Galilee.

Every time I look into the holy book I wanna tremble.

When I read about the part where a carpenter cleared the temple
For the buyers and the sellers where no diff’rently fellas than what I profess to be.
And it causes me pain to know that I’m not the gal that I should be.

Put your hand in the hand of the Man who stilled the water.

Put your hand in the hand of the Man who calmed the sea.
Take a look at yourself and you can look at others diff’rently
By puttin’ your hand in the hand of the Man from a Galilee.

Mama taught me how to pray before I reached the age of seven.
And when I’m down on my knees that’s a when I’m closer to heaven.
My Daddy lived his life with eight kids and a wife, well, you do what you must do
But he taught me enough of what it takes to get you through.

Put your hand in the hand of the Man who stilled the water.

Put your hand in the hand of the Man who calmed the sea.
Take a look at yourself and you can look at others diff’rently
By puttin’ your hand in the hand of the Man from a Galilee.
